Great stuff, I just started building an app with React, GraphQL and Apollo, and these videos are incredibly helpful, especially because this stuff is so new! Thank you thank you.

Thank you for this, authentication has been one of the few things stopping me from fully adopting GraphQL into my personal projects. These new components help me reason with it a bit more.

Hi Ben, will you make a video of handling the user sessions with cookies? You mentioned it before. For more secure authentication. 😃

cool was waiting for this for a long time, just one question though if using a token, which has expired, and when do the logout, a error would popup as it becomes unauthorize, how would you handle that, cheers

I get it, but I don't get it.. why would you Log out when the component mounts? Wouldn't a better use case be to send that mutation on a button click?
