This is great work! I just worked on something very similar and it was extremely powerful.

I'm looking forward to setting aside some time to read the code. I'm particularly interested in how you approached API evolution and backwards compatibility.

Do you have any plans to start a company around this?

For now, we mostly focus on building solid foundations and having a design that can be easily extended by the users. It is already run in production at some local companies and we will see whether this is more adoptions in the next months.

Regarding backwards compatibility, we believe that GraphQL's approach is kind of incomplete and that more guarantees can be provided by the server. Nothing concrete yet, but happy to exchange a few ideas!
