2015-01-29 Unofficial Relay FAQ

Compilation of questions and answers about Relay from React.js Conf.

Disclaimer: I work on Relay at Facebook. Relay is a complex system on which we're iterating aggressively. I'll do my best here to provide accurate, useful answers, but the details are subject to change. I may also be wrong. Feedback and additional questions are welcome.

What is Relay?

Relay is a new framework from Facebook that provides data-fetching functionality for React applications. It was announced at React.js Conf (January 2015).

On the Quest of recoding malloc(3)

Back when I did not know anything about programing and started to learn C, I was first introduced to pointers (and other dreaded horrors that made me curl into a corner and cry) and dynamic memory in general.

I was baffled, troubled, yet fascinated by the basic explanation on how memory worked, and started to dread the time where I would need to manually create my char arrays for each and every sentences of my program; right before learning about string literals and feeling like an idiot.

It was then where I was learning about memory allocation and came upon a function that I would call for long the "magic function" : malloc. Magic, because at that point I didn't know how it worked, let alone knew anything about memory other that it was a "chain of boxes for numbers".
