What do people build with it?

USE CASE 1

Register multiple data loaders with a single method chain instead of writing separate Guice bindings for each.

USE CASE 2

Batch multiple database or API calls into one request to speed up a GraphQL server.

USE CASE 3

Avoid manually wrapping data loaders in Provider objects to work around Guice's singleton scope.

USE CASE 4

Reduce configuration errors when managing several data loaders in a growing GraphQL API.
