Amplify Backend only developments

0

We have a unity game under development and we need to set up a GraphQL API endpoint for being used in our frontend game. The server and frontend (unity) teams are completely separate teams. There are tons of resources on how to develop a full-stack app for instance via react and Amplify, Cognito, etc., but what if the backend team needs to develop a "Server only" implementation and be able to generate API docs for the separate client team to implement them in their frontend developments? Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You could use AWS AppSync which is a managed service that uses GraphQL to make it easy for applications to get the data they exactly need. You could create an API in GraphQL and define schemas data sources, functions & queries etc. After this, you could just integrate this API with your Front End on Amplify. This way, the Backend team can manage AppSync & Backends and the Front end team would only need to develop/modify the queries to work with the GraphQL APIs on client side JS.

Some articles which will be useful: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/appsync/latest/devguide/what-is-appsync.html https://aws.amazon.com/appsync/resources/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/graphql-security-appsync-amplify/ https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/mobile/appsync-microservices/

Thanks
