Code duplication - GraphQL queries

[raghunath-r-a]

GraphQL queries are duplicated at many places in the templates.

Please remove those duplicate queries to help improve code quality.

@raghunath-r-a Hey! I can work on this as I have exp with graphql. Can I get some info what kind of queries we are looking at?

Hi, @aloks98 Below is the frontmatter format that will be used for Graphql queries:

---
title: "<Title>"
date: "2017-04-07"
coverImage: "<relative path>"
author: "<Author id which is linked to the author.yaml file>"
tags: ["Engineering","JavaScript","Hacks","Array"]
description: "<Short description>"
pinned: <boolean - used to showcase the blog at the top>
---

From the above frontmatter we are:

• Listing the blog based on the date (recent first)
• If there is any blog that has pinned: true it should show at the top else the latest blog should show at the top.
• Filter blogs based on tags
• Filter blogs based on the author

So the queries are written for the above filters, it has the scope of optimization, you can go ahead and have a look at the queries and let me know your thoughts on it and how we can improve the performance by modifying it.

Thanks !!!
