Do you want your API data fast or accurate? With WPGraphQL Smart Cache, you can have both.

BREAKING CHANGES: We may make breaking changes in the future to improve functionality and experience. If we do, we will use semver to do so. Pay attention to release notes and upgrade notices before updating.
