Open Source Everything

Encore

Encore is a TypeScript and Go framework for writing backend code in which you declare databases, queues and file storage, and its open-source tools run them on your computer or package the app for self-hosting with Docker. Automatic setup in your AWS or Google Cloud account uses Encore's hosted platform, and it is aimed at developers building server-side apps.

Something wrong?

Wrong devices, a wrong description, or it isn't really open source? A mod reviews every suggestion.

What we couldn't confirm3
  • Whether the managed Encore Cloud platform is open source (the README describes it as optional and priced, and the license section is truncated).
  • Whether Firebase's authentication, hosting or client SDK features have any equivalent in Encore.
  • Whether Encore's platform components beyond the framework are covered by MPL-2.0.
