Description
### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When modifying queries in development, codegen does not complete before react's hot reload re-runs code. As a result, the documents map is out of sync with the source code and we fall into the `{}` case in the generated `graphql` function
```
export function graphql(source: string) {
return (documents as any)[source] ?? {};
}
```
Since `{}` is not a valid AST node, the graphql client throws and error and development is halted.
### Describe the solution you'd like
For development, it would be ideal for the error not to be thrown when modifying queries. One solution would be for the fallback to be `gql(source)` instead of `{}`. The issue with that is we'd have to figure out how to eliminate the `gql` dependency in production.
### Describe alternatives you've considered
I haven't been able to come up with alternative solutions
