Open source background jobs for JavaScript and TypeScript
By Matt Aitken & James Ritchie & Eric Allam
Running background jobs in JS/TS meant setting up Redis, BullMQ, worker processes, and monitoring. Too much infrastructure for simple tasks.
Launched in 2023. Open source. Growing among JS/TS developers who need background jobs without the infrastructure overhead.
Background jobs should be as easy to write as a regular function. No queues, no workers, just code.
To make background processing invisible — just write functions and they run reliably.
