Encore
Batteries included TypeScript framework for building distributed systems

Encore is an open-source TypeScript backend framework that lets developers define services and infrastructure as type-safe objects directly in code. It automatically provisions local and cloud infrastructure—databases, Pub/Sub, caches—without Docker Compose or config files. The framework also provides built-in tooling for documentation, architecture diagrams, and distributed tracing out of the box.
Developers declare infrastructure needs as type-safe TypeScript objects, and Encore automatically provisions, wires, and manages everything across local, preview, and production environments.
