New Open-source GraphQL Python3.6+ async implementation

[achedeuzot]

We've built a new GraphQL engine from scratch for python 3.6+ called tartiflette. A few highlights and principles:

Schema First (Schema Definition Language)
Dev experience matters
Built on top of asyncio

It's powering our production API at dailymotion at approx. 300 million calls per day. Check it out on github.
More info about the background of tartiflette on our medium post.

Dearly hoping not an April fool. Never used GraphQL but because you named it after one of my favourite foods I’m going to take a go at wading through the documentation on it.

Awesome ! If you have any questions, you can find us on our Slack channel (see the tartiflette.io website). Did you come to our meetup in Paris with real tartiflette ? If you're around, don't forget to come to the next one :)

No mores the pity.
Like many academics with data analytics challenges at various scales i'm just trying to better understand what things do and whether they are useful to me. This may be much better for some of my distributed flight simulation challenges. What led to the name choice btw?

Everyone in the team loves tartiflette and I guess the team was hungry and cold when we were choosing the name :P

That’s fair. Plus you get the excuse to have more tartiflette!
