Even ten years in, GraphQL continues to evolve—not just in code, but in connection. This year the Foundation has doubled down on transparency, support, and shared leadership: board minutes are now public, Subject Matter Experts have helped shape the conference agenda, and we'll be launching a new program live on stage! There are also updates on our existing initiatives including community grants and GraphQL Locals.
