Vue CLI Apollo Plugin

vue-cli-plugin-apollo is a Vue CLI 3.x plugin that streamlines the integration of Apollo Client and GraphQL into Vue.js projects. It automates much of the boilerplate setup, including configuring Apollo Client with features like WebSockets, file uploads, and client-side state management (via apollo-link-state). The plugin also offers an optional, customizable GraphQL server based on Apollo Server, complete with automatic mocking, Apollo Engine support, and an integrated GraphQL Playground in the CLI UI. It provides commands for schema generation and publishing. The current stable version is 0.22.2, with an active but irregular release cadence focused on maintenance, bug fixes, and updates to underlying Apollo libraries. Its key differentiator is the rapid, opinionated setup it provides for full-stack GraphQL development with Vue, significantly reducing manual configuration.
