Encore Ts May 2026

import Queue from "encore/queue"; export const emailQueue = new Queue("emails", maxConcurrency: 10, );

In your Next.js or React frontend:

import SQLDatabase from "encore/storage"; // This single line provisions a real database in dev/prod const db = new SQLDatabase("user-db", migrations: "./migrations", ); encore ts

import ping from "./client"; // auto-generated const result = await ping( name: "World" ); // fully typed Encore.ts treats background jobs as first-class citizens. You define a queue, and Encore handles the message broker (e.g., Redis, SQS, GCP Pub/Sub): import Queue from "encore/queue"; export const emailQueue =

It is still young (first stable release in late 2024), but for greenfield projects, it represents a genuine leap forward in TypeScript backend ergonomics. It reads your TypeScript code structure to understand

At its core, Encore.ts is a and a runtime combined. It reads your TypeScript code structure to understand your architecture, then spins up the necessary cloud resources without requiring you to write Infrastructure as Code (IaC) files like Terraform or Pulumi. Core Features 1. Infrastructure from Code This is Encore.ts's killer feature. You don't write CREATE TABLE SQL migrations manually or configure SQS queues. Instead, you write TypeScript:

For years, building a backend in TypeScript has followed a predictable pattern: grab express or Fastify , add some zod for validation, wire up a few ts-node scripts, and pray your async error handling doesn't silently fail. While this works, it feels bolted together.
