Modular by Design

Pick only the packages you need — storage, documents, assets, auth, crypto, sanitizer, i18n.

Runtime Agnostic

Works on Node.js, Cloudflare Workers, AWS Lambda, Deno, and anywhere modern JavaScript runs.

Minimal Dependencies

Extremely slim bundles so your edge and serverless deployments stay fast.

Standard Schema Compatible

Use Zod, Valibot, ArkType, or any Standard Schema validator interchangeably.

Security First

Quantum-safe cryptography, file sanitization, and built-in defaults to harden production.

API-First

JSON:API endpoints out of the box — pair with Decap CMS or any frontend you already use.
