Ask HN: Is GraphQL still growing, established or already in decline?

I think the State of JS 2018 survey is a great indicator for its growth and the interest of the developer community: https://2018.stateofjs.com/data-layer/graphql/

Other growth indicators:

- More and more GraphQL conferences (with growing number of attendees), e.g. GraphQL Europe with 300 attendees last year, 500 attendees this year and as the rebranded GraphQL conf is aiming for 1000 attendees next year.

- An ever growing list of companies adopting GraphQL (http://graphql.org/users); big companies betting on GraphQL like Facebook, GitHub, Twitter, Airbnb, Shopify, ...

I personally believe that GraphQL is still in its infancy and will become the new API standard over the next few years. I recently wrote an article about my personal top reasons for adopting GraphQL:
