The article introduces a new feature called `@defer` in GraphQL, which allows developers to decouple queries from the fields they contain. This enables faster loading of components and reduces spaghetti code. The feature is supported across the Apollo stack, including GraphOS, and can be used with existing GraphQL APIs without modifications. The router breaks down complex queries into multiple requests, allowing for more efficient data fetching and rendering of UI components. With `@defer`, developers can now easily optimize their queries to prioritize loading faster fields or reduce the response time for slow fields.
