Deepkit

Overview

Deepkit revolutionizes the way we utilize TypeScript by ensuring that types defined during development are preserved at runtime. This eliminates the need for redundant type definitions and streamlines the development process across various layers, such as validation, serialization, database interactions, and remote procedure calls. With Deepkit, developers can confidently write their type definitions once and leverage them throughout their application, minimizing complexity and enhancing productivity.

The framework addresses a common pain point in TypeScript development where types often get lost or distorted outside the main codebase. By integrating types deeply into the runtime environment, Deepkit not only simplifies code management but also boosts performance. The end result is a cohesive system where TypeScript shines in both development and runtime, making it an indispensable tool for modern TypeScript applications.

Features

• Runtime Types: TypeScript types are preserved at runtime through a specialized compiler plugin, ensuring consistency across different application layers.
• Type Annotations: Utilize validation constraints efficiently with intersection types, allowing for precise type definitions tailored to specific requirements.
• Zero-Decorator DI: Achieve dependency injection seamlessly in pure TypeScript without needing decorators such as @Injectable().
• End-to-End Types: Maintain the same type definitions across the frontend, API, transport, and database, reducing the overhead of managing multiple schemas.
• Type-First ORM: Directly infer your database schema from TypeScript types, making database interactions more intuitive and type-safe.
• Binary RPC: Ensure type-safe communication over WebSocket or TCP with automatic serialization, enhancing the robustness of remote procedure calls.
• High Performance: Experience fast Just-In-Time compiled validation, serialization, and dependency injection for responsive applications.
• Modular Design: Selectively use from over 40 independent packages, allowing developers to tailor Deepkit’s functionality to their specific needs without unnecessary bloat.
