  - Optimized GraphQL implementation to minimize database calls while taking advantage of the accurate and predictable data retrieval and single endpoint to allow for simplification of client and server-side logic - Restructured cache invalidation by traversing GraphQL abstract syntax tree utilizing Redis’ advanced data structure hashes to store and filter through query strings invalidating stale cache keys after a relevant mutation preventing incomplete response data - Implemented Redis’ full-stack application caching abilities and advanced data structures to drastically improve speed, lessen expenses and provide flexibility for developers for calls that would otherwise reach a database - Refactored cache to allow more granular searching and saving by retrieving individual fields from a GraphQL query and only return those fields from the cache if found affected tables allowing for specific cache invalidation - Leveraged React’s unidirectional data flow by creating a wrapper component to enhance performance and make for easy integration into React apps and thereby reducing redundant code and increasing maintainability and simplifying refactoring - Implemented recursive normalizations algorithm to flatten arbitrarily nested and large GraphQL responses to be cached dynamically, preventing from being stale from mutations and reducing calls to backend API, improving overall user experience - Migrated from Javascript to TypeScript to make use of strong and static typing to prevent type coercion in development to allow for quicker debugging, easier maintenance and refactoring, and improved readability - Enhanced application security and testing measures by using Deno’s runtime environment and top level async/await logic alongside a fully redesigned modules system with built-in functionality to increase efficiency overall
