Abstract: A data-fetching and data-rendering system may, in response to receiving a page display request, construct a static, possibly nested query for retrieving all the data to be rendered for the page and store the query result in a data store. For a future page display request, the system may similarly construct a query and determine whether the query can be resolved from the data store. If not, the system may construct a “diff query” to fetch only the missing data. In some embodiments, in response to a subsequent page update request, the system may retrieve from the server all the data likely to be viewed or updated and render the data changes corresponding to the requested update. The system may then submit the data changes to the server and undo the rendering of the data changes when the server fails to process the data changes.
