Our Primary Backend Runtime
Node.js powers the majority of our backend APIs. Its non-blocking I/O model makes it exceptionally well-suited for high-concurrency REST APIs, real-time WebSocket servers, and event-driven microservices where thousands of simultaneous connections are the norm.
Our Node.js Stack
- Express.js or Fastify for HTTP server frameworks
- tRPC for type-safe API contracts between frontend and backend
- Prisma ORM for type-safe database access
- BullMQ for Redis-backed job queues
- Jest and Vitest for unit and integration testing
- PM2 or Docker for process management
When We Use Node.js
REST APIs, GraphQL servers, real-time applications (chat, notifications, live dashboards), BFF (Backend for Frontend) layers, and CLI tooling. When raw CPU-bound computation is required, we offload to Python or Go worker services.
