Graphql-engine: Multi-tab UI for GraphiQL to keep queries

[revskill10]

Currently with graphql-playground, you can have multi-tab UI , so we don't have to delete/recreate queries we want to keep them there.
There're two options for this.

• Adopt graphql-playground or something similar for a better UX.
• Hacking on GraphiQL.

@praveenweb @revskill10 Cant't the History button and the sidebar on GraphiQL itself serve this purpose?

@shahidhk I think in long term, multi-tab is unavoidable when you have large number of queries to test at the same time, so it would be easier to manage through tabs.

I think adopting graphql-playground is a better choice because we can have multiple tabs which allow us to do multiple queries at a time. For example, We can test subscriptions with playground by subscribing in one tab and doing mutations in other. I don't know if this can be achieved with the history feature of GraphiQL.

I think GraphiQL in the Hasura console is enough.

If you want to use the GraphiQL Playground, which is a great tool, you can use it separately as a web app without adopt it into the Hasura console.

I would suggest adopting Altair though.
