About Encore
Encore is a type-safe backend framework with automated infrastructure for Node.js. It serves developers building backend services across startups to large enterprises, enabling them to generate infrastructure, wiring, API docs, and tracing directly from code-defined services.

Key Features
When you’re shaping backend services, Encore translates code into APIs and defined infrastructure, keeping API surfaces and deployment logic aligned:
API exposure
Wrap a function with api() to expose it as an API endpoint.
Infrastructure as code (type-safe)
Define databases, Pub/Sub, object storage, Cron jobs, secrets, and caches as type-safe objects in application code, reducing boilerplate and misconfigurations.
One-line database definition
Define a PostgreSQL database in a single line of code to streamline setup and migrations.
Deployment and cloud automation
Deploy anywhere that supports Docker images with Encore’s Open Source tools, with optional Encore Cloud for automated infra and DevOps in AWS and GCP.
Summary
Best for backend engineering teams, platform/DevOps groups managing infrastructure, and startups prototyping new services.
