MEMBRANE
alpha
What is Membrane?
A fast, powerful way to write internal tools in TypeScript, connecting the apps you already use at work.
FEATURESEXAMPLES
durable programs
Programs deployed to Membrane are durable. There's no need to store data in a database because the entire state of your program (i.e. the JS heap) is continually and efficiently persisted.
Think: JavaScript objects as the database. To keep data around, just put it in the state object and that's it!
Promises can be await'ed indefinitely without worrying about execution timeouts.
Keep long-lived values in
state
.import { state } from "membrane";
state.notes = state.notes ?? []
export async function saveNote({ args }) {
state.notes.push(args.note);
}
