Looks very interesting, I have a few questions before jumping into it though! 😉 Can you securely consume the GQL API endpoint from the frontend? I expect one should only fetch data from the backend to avoid leaking the secret that allows to query the entire base. If it's queryable from the frontend, is it possible to disallow fetching of specific fields? How do you handle the Airtable API rate limit? I guess all calls to the QGL API are eventually converted into REST API calls and are subject to their rate limit (5 req/seconds). I wonder how this works, especially when fetching data from multiple tables at one. Or maybe you have a cache? What does the Airtable app do? Are you worried about the upcoming change in Airtable pricing, which now limits the number of apps available on any base?
