End-to-end typesafe APIs built quicker & easier

Note

This project is still in heavy development, please be mindful of breaking changes.

oRPC is a powerful combination of RPC and OpenAPI, offering an exceptional developer experience powered by TypeScript. It's designed to be simple and straightforward to use.


Features

  • Type-safe 🔒: oRPC is built on top of TypeScript, which means you get full type safety out of the box.
  • Easy to use ✍️: oRPC is designed to be simple and straightforward to use.
  • Contract first 📝: Take advantage of a "contract first" approach to developing your API.
  • Built-in plugins 🔌: Easily implement into your favourite frameworks.

Documentation & Examples

You can find the full documentation & examples here.
