Thanks Scott. I remember back to our convos in the Grain office from a year back that helped to inspire the structure of this post. Was cool to see you invest in it at Tipe and reap the rewards!
Hey HN. We're Tipe (YC W18). We're trying to solve how teams manage content in the the apps they build today. All you have to do is create a GraphQL Schema file, and we'll do the rest. Tipe generates a full GraphQL API complete with mutations, queries, and filtering (REST Too). Content creators and marketers get a visual editor that they can use to edit the content on any web app you create. You can also prototype offline with Tipe, and never have to wait on that content to be ready or trying to fake out content yourself. Check us out and sign up to access private beta. Ask your questions, I'll answer them.

We're a content platform for all your apps. We allow teams to move faster by separating their content from their apps, and put it behind GraphQL and REST API's. So yea, like a CMS!
We are doing some CRAZY things with GraphQL and data modeling. Tipe is in beta right now and we're working with exciting companies to build something they'll love.
For Backend Dev, Expert experience with a DB like Mongo or PSQL is required, and well versed in NodeJs as well. Everyone on the team is a well respected and engineer with open source projects, online courses, and conference talks. We like to understand our customers and build what is valuable while still taking advantage of what's coming.
For UX person, we prefer someone with strong researching and prototyping skills. Tipe is mostly a web product and has tons of interesting usability concerns to address. Need someone to help us dig for gold with our customers.
We're a YC venture backed company. I'm the founder and CEO of Tipe. contact me at scott@tipe.io
I have a list of things. On that list, I weight all those things to learn with 3 categories. Relevancy, practicality, and excitement. If something hits all 3 categories, I learn it now. 2 categories, it's up next. 1, I may never learn it. None, absolutely never.
CoFounder and CEO of Tipe here. I think AppSync is amazing. Using GraphQL with AWS services is simple. This is a no-brainer for Enterprise. We're using some of this tech to offer enterprise support for our customers. Check us out and signup for beta, https://tipe.io
Very nice. Tipe is almost a direct featureset clone of a CMS I built in 2006, just done much better. And with todays tech its probably a lot easier to develop. No disrespect to what you're doing, you're still putting in insane amounts of work to have this function. Definitely my new favorite CMS approach. Power anything from websites to electronic billboards... love it. Mine was called Calypso.io :)
I'm not so interested in the money but I'd be happy to talk. I've taught courses and pretty much every top online coding site . Egghead, front end masters, pluralsight. I've also created my own online courses on my own platform reaching 40k students in 3 months. Before that I was an engineer at Udacity and Hack Reactor. Both of which are coding education companies.
We have @ https://tipe.io. you can use rest and GraphQL. Basically, given a REST url, you dynamically create on graphql query on your server, and the execute that query against your schema. It's all meta
Wasn't able to find a library or a Github or anything like that from a quick glance. I'm assuming this is a closed platform. What I was inquiring about was something that I can use in my own software.
You seem to have misunderstood the parent here. They are saying that at their company, they are doing this (_not_ as a library or product you can purchase).
Parent was saying that to implement it, they essentially wrote their REST API by grabbing a URL, dynamically creating a GraphQL query for it on their backend server, and then executing that query against their own GraphQL schema and returning the result.
