v17.1 / v18 Roadmap

[yaacovCR]

Note: that preference is for all changes to be opt-in and available on the v17 line, anything BREAKING will be delayed until v18.

The below is my wishlist, please feel free to comment here

• validateSchema => parallel rules via mapSchema/visitSchema
  • Allow validateSchema to accept validation rules like validate does. #2873
• directive validation
  • ValuesOfCorrectTypeRule missing in specifiedSDLRules #3222
  • feat(validation): reject directive definition cycles - rewrite #4726 #4816
• full SDL validation?
  • framework for standardizing that all rules have programmatic/SDL analogues ?
• hard split between separate graphql modules? i.e. use IGraphQLSchema interface in modules outside type instead of class GraphQLSchema
  • Implement optimal JavaScript module design #4442 ? perhaps at least get rid of main barrel file
• execution experiments
  • feat(execution): experimental batch field resolution #4760
  • feat: add compilation #4769
  • feat: generated execution SDK #4776
• type safety
  • Strict typing with TS #2188
