Directives All the Way Down
GraphQL directives can now be applied to directive definitions themselves in Hot Chocolate 16.4, so you can finally deprecate a directive and attach metadata to your schema's own extension points.
Explore the code, read the docs, and talk to the maintainers building the platform.
Open source you can inspect. Standards you can follow. People you can reach.
The server, gateway, client, and core libraries are all developed in a single public GitHub repository.
ChilliCream contributors help shape the specifications and conventions the platform implements. See the official GraphQL team page for current roles and participation.

Built with C# and .NET, Fusion 16.5 is the only gateway supporting both federation standards, achieves 100% Apollo Federation compliance, and leads in real-world performance.

Federated Event Streams add broker-backed, resumable GraphQL subscriptions to Fusion 16.4, with stateless gateway scaling and client-owned resume cursors.
Read the docs, run a focused evaluation, and talk to a maintainer about your architecture. Then decide.
