## What it is
Apollo Universal Starter Kit is a fully configured, modular boilerplate for building universal JavaScript/TypeScript applications across web, server, and mobile platforms. It combines Apollo GraphQL, React, Angular, React Native, Expo, Knex.js, and Express with support for PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite.

## Use cases
- bootstrap a fullstack GraphQL app with React and Node
- build a mobile and web app from one shared codebase
- start a TypeScript project with Apollo and Express preconfigured
- scaffold a universal JavaScript application with SEO support
- set up a GraphQL server with relational database migrations
- create a React Native app with shared GraphQL backend

## When to choose
- you want a batteries-included fullstack GraphQL starter for web and mobile
- you need maximum code reuse across React, Angular, and React Native clients
- you prefer a preconfigured TypeScript setup with Apollo, Express, and Knex

## When to avoid
- you need a minimal, unopinionated scaffold you can assemble yourself
- your stack doesn't involve GraphQL or Apollo
- you require a starter with frequent updates and active community maintenance
