I think this is really nicely done. It's probably a little over-engineered for a project of this size, but it shows the power of using all of these libraries together, and I'm sure it was a great learning experience.

Does anyone know what tool was used to generate the system architecture diagram? It's really clean and clear - https://github.com/clintonwoo/hackernews-react-graphql#archi...

Sentence 2 on the front page:

"It is intended to be an example or boilerplate to help you structure your projects using production-ready technologies."

He could have used less tech, but then the project wouldn't have served it's purpose.

Assuming that boilerplate is indeed necessary. Many comments point out exactly that: this very page shows that the boilerplate for a really fast page is just the opened and closed html tag.

It's using the magic of Google Slides if you can believe it. They have a lot of nice information modeling shapes.
