## What it is
Lokka is a simple JavaScript client for GraphQL that works in the browser, Node.js, and React Native. It provides a lightweight API for queries, mutations, and fragments with pluggable transport layers and a basic cache.

## Use cases
- query a GraphQL API from JavaScript
- send GraphQL mutations with variables
- reuse GraphQL fragments across queries
- use a GraphQL client in React Native
- connect to a GraphQL endpoint over HTTP from Node.js

## When to choose
- you need a minimal, dependency-light GraphQL client for an older JavaScript stack
- you want simple query/mutation/fragment support without heavy tooling
- you need a client that runs in browser, Node, and React Native

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - the library is unmaintained since 2017
- you need subscriptions, normalized caching, or TypeScript support
- you want an actively maintained ecosystem like Apollo Client or urql

## Facets

- function: graphql-client, http-client, caching
- domain: web-development, frontend, apis
