InternalStack Server

InternalStack Server empowers you to build internal applications for your team using only backend TypeScript/JavaScript code. With a declarative API, streamline your development by focusing on business logic instead of things like CORS troubleshooting.

import { internalStack } from '@internalstack/server';

const server = await internalStack('live_psk_5b2d902f24a057349d9f2d1c385fef7c59');

server.statefulSession(async (io, { user }) => {
  const note = await io.input.text('Note');
  console.log(user, 'says: ', note);
  // e.g. [e-mail] says: Hello World!
});

InternalStack Server is free, open-source software designed to run on-premises.
