Comparison with graphql_flutter/graphql package

[manlyman29]

Hello, I have been worked with both of these gql clients for a while now beside each other. I have some doubts about how this two should be used and for flutter newbies like me i think others could be confused at first as well, There are guides on internet on using both at the same time but it doesn't feels completely natural to me. Most important differences i could see was graphql_flutter supports cache and Artemis does code generation, right? Are they supposed to be used beside each other? Any best practices or suggestion to use only one maybe?

Did you get along with this article? https://medium.com/@v.ditsyak/ultimate-toolchain-to-work-with-graphql-in-flutter-13aef79c6484

To be short - graphql_flutter is a client Artemis for code generation

Thanks for response, yes i have read that article. The part that made me doubt if these two are meant to be used along each other was when calling a mutation:

Mutation(
    options: MutationOptions(
        document: CreateAddressMutation(
                variables: CreateAddressArguments(
                    title: "",
                    details: "",
                    lat: 10.1,
                    lng: 10.1))
            .document),
    builder: (
      RunMutation runMutation,
      QueryResult? result,
    ) {
      return ElevatedButton(
          onPressed: () {
            if (_formKey.currentState!.validate()) {
              runMutation({
                "title": "T",
                "details": "D",
                "lat": 10.1,
                "lng": 10.1
              });
            }
          },
          child: Text('Save'),
          ));

I couldn't find a way around having to pass the arguments twice maybe i did something wrong here.
