a year ago
  • #WebAssembly
  • #Rust
  • #WorkflowEngine
  • Single process runtime with SQLite database, no complex infrastructure needed.
  • Built on WebAssembly Component Model for interoperability, deterministic execution, isolation, and safety.
  • Workflows written in real code (not YAML), with structured concurrency for simplified error handling.
  • Crash-resilient and replayable, with execution logs storing parameters, steps, and results.
  • Controlled HTTP client with built-in limitations and tracing.
  • Automatic retries on timeouts or failures with execution logs.
  • Trigger workflows via Webhook, CLI, gRPC, or Web UI.
  • Built with Rust under AGPL, source available on GitHub.
  • Join mailing list for milestone updates.
