Integrating GraphQL Apollo Client with Vue 3

It is tempting to ask what the best way to integrate GraphQL client into Vue 3 is and how to structure it in an enterprise project to foster faster adoption by team members, including new team members.

In my career as a full-stack software engineer, I recently joined a fintech company using Vue 3 and GraphQL to disrupt the fintech industry in Germany, and I was so impressed at the arrangement of such a large code base and how easy it was for me to jump right into solving my first task.

There are many ways to structure your Vue 3 project with GraphQL, but I want to outline the best way I have seen that works for small- or large-scale enterprise projects, including the fintech one I worked on.

GraphQL Apollo Client is a JavaScript library used to connect to the GraphQL server to interchange data. With the library, you can connect to the server, send requests, and receive responses from the server.
