## 👨🏼‍🚀 Executive Summary

Over the past several months, our dedicated team has been diligently crafting a comprehensive project aimed at developing a robust GraphQL Gateway. We’re excited to announce that this endeavor has culminated in the release of our open-source solution. Furthermore, we’re actively engaged in refining the next iteration of our Graph Client. This upcoming version will streamline the process of supporting Subgraph composition at the server level.

Previously, Subgraph composition through Graph Client was primarily performed on the client side. While some users within our community successfully implemented Graph Client on their hosted servers, we recognize the need to simplify this process further. If your dApp relies on Subgraph composition, we invite you to connect with us. We’re eager to explore how we can enhance your workflows and streamline your operations. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us for further discussion.

We maintain ongoing collaboration with core developers throughout the ecosystem, offering our support and assistance wherever needed.
