Encore.ts — TypeScript Backend Framework for Node.js

It's designed around an Open Source Backend SDK, which makes it very simple to create backend services and APIs, and use cloud infrastructure resources, such as:
- SQL Databases
- Pub/Sub topics and subscriptions
- Caches
- Cron jobs
- Secrets

Try putting the script close to the camera so its not obvious you are reading from script BUT A LOVELY JOB YOU GUYS HAVE DONE AWESOME !

[uchennaofoma]

Looks amazing. Was excited about effect (and still am) but I'm excited about this too

[Max_Jean]

Fantastic! I've been waiting for this

[metarunelabs]

This is so cool! 🎉 Forwarding to our team

[mikopiko]

I had a feeling you guys where from Sweden, and looking it up, yepp your office is in Stockholm. Cool!

[Voltra_]

It's really cool that it's fully compatible with node! For the types part, is it a superficial parser, or an alternative front-end to the transpiler that actually gets the fully resolved types?

[seannewell]

I know Deno would naturally be a heavier runtime, and y'all obviously have things in place to run rust well, but curious if trying deno failed for some reason?

[epicmap]

It would be even cooler if the rust app could run multiple nodejs instances and balance the load between them(when configured). It would be truly amazing in terms of mitigating the nodejs single threaded nature

[yassine-sa]

What is it with those french named libraries coming out!

[GreatTaiwan]

So encore is what again? A framework? Like spring ? Or .net

[cecece]

Hope that’s not another new runtime that is free now but then we’ll have to pay

1 big problem i see with modern tools is they often trying to do everything poorly instead of one thing good. For example encore doesn't give you ability to connect your database, instead you have to stick with their solution. I haven't found encore self-hosting ability so it means your app is alive only if encore is alive.
Hey, Encore, great product but eliminate errors at the start: build a platform, not a product, so companies can actually trust you.

Why? What's the point? Did you not have internet access to look for NestJs? Or? Are you some kind of special snowflakes that claim to bring the 'Don't reinvent the wheel', 'Our framework is the best', 'Is the faster'?
What is the point, what do you offer to the table? You inspire bad practises (I guess you are all coming from React, which could explain it.), with absolutely random architecture. Just cause you did a wrap around Node Request/Response and SQL driver does not mean you have to release another immature backend framework.
NestJS offered microservices, monorepo, protobuff, streams, actual event driven architecture, proper controller/service/repo since you were in liquid form.
Why did you even bother starting 1 more instead of contributing? What's the matter with you and projects like the Effect (RxJs wannabe but inferior)?
