Relay-runtime is a JavaScript framework for building data-driven React applications. It provides a declarative and efficient way to fetch and manage data for your components, optimizing performance by batching and caching network requests. Relay-runtime is specifically designed to work with GraphQL, allowing you to define data requirements at the component level and automatically handle data fetching and updates.
Compared to other data-fetching solutions like Redux or Apollo Client, Relay-runtime offers a more integrated approach to managing data in React applications. It enforces best practices for data fetching and caching, making it a powerful choice for complex applications with extensive data requirements.
