realtime-location-app

A demo application to showcase real-time capabilities of Hasura GraphQL Engine.

The Realtime location application is built using React and is powered by Hasura GraphQL Engine over Postgres. It has an interface for users to track location of a vehicle using Hasura live queries, in real-time.

The application makes use of Hasura GraphQL Engine's real-time capabilities using subscription. There is no backend code involved. The application is hosted on GitHub pages and the Postgres+GraphQL Engine is running on Postgres.

• Checkout the live app.
• Explore the database using Hasura Console.
