BrevityA little framework. Your kind of app.

Build APIs and server-rendered pages in TypeScript. Add what you need. Leave the rest out.

Build a notebook

Small by default

Routes, middleware, and dependency injection. Core has no external runtime dependencies.

Start with HTML

Use optional templates and native forms. Add a browser component where it helps, without turning the whole page into a client app.

Use tools you know

Bring Drizzle, Prisma, Supabase, or Svelte. Brevity connects the HTTP pieces, not every layer of your stack.

A route is just a function

ts

import { createApp } from "@portablesheep/brevity";

export const app = createApp();
app.router.get("/", (_req, res) => res.json({ message: "Hello, Brevity" }));

Call app.listen(3000) in your entry point to start the server. Send JSON with res.json(), redirect with res.redirect(), or render an HTML page.

Where to start

Run your first app, then follow the notebook tutorial for forms and a database. Already building something? Pick an integration recipe or look up an API in the reference.
