There are some very solid libraries in most languages. I'm not a .NET dev, but I think that HotChocolate takes the cake. Here's a non-exhaustive list: - Kotlin: Netflix's "DGS" (https://github.com/Netflix/dgs-framework) - Python: Strawberry (https://github.com/strawberry-graphql/strawberry) - .NET: HotChocolate (https://github.com/ChilliCream/hotchocolate) - Rust: async-graphql (https://github.com/async-graphql/async-graphql) - Java: GraphQL-Java (https://github.com/graphql-java/graphql-java) - Scala 2: Sangria (https://github.com/sangria-graphql/sangria) - Scala 3: Caliban (https://github.com/ghostdogpr/caliban)
In GraphQL is quickly moving to one of my least favorite technologies
Generally I would assume an Apollo stack would have an Apollo server [1] or an Apollo client [2] or both. GraphQL on the other hand is just a query language. GraphQL queries are used by Apollo Client to ask for data from a GraphQL endpoint which could be provided by an Apollo Server or some other GraphQL server implementation. By my inspection it seems the only official Apollo Server implementation is in Node.js. By my understanding, you can replace an Apollo Server with any GraphQL server for example Scala's Sangria [3]. So, your Apollo Client can talk to any GraphQL server, and Apollo Client is probably the best and most useful part of an Apollo stack anyways. One good website for figuring out how to use different Apollo stacks is howtographql.com [4] (I am not affiliated with them, but I only like their service.) It has free tutorials

All Apollo Clients include: JavaScript: - React - Angular - Vue - Meteor - Ember Web Components: - Polymer - lit-apollo Native mobile: - Native iOS with Swift - Native Android with Java - React Native [1]: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-server/ [2]: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/ [3]: https://github.com/sangria-graphql/sangria [4]: https://www.howtographql.com
