Apollo has an entire ecosystem of tools to build GraphQL applications regardless of the frontend framework or library you intend to use. You can use it to develop client-side and server-side apps separately. Apollo has more features and support than its open-source competitors in GraphQL for JavaScript world.

In this tutorial, let’s build a small demo app. In this app, you are going to use a third-party API endpoint to fetch a list of cryptocurrencies. This API endpoint is going to be based on REST, so a thing you are going to learn is how to make use of Apollo Client to fetch results from a REST endpoint using GraphQL query language.

I am going to use Expo CLI to quickly get started with a React Native project and focus on integrating Apollo Client in a React Native app. If you are familiar with React Native CLI, you can go ahead and use it instead of Expo CLI.
