Getting started

Write business logic once. Replace infrastructure anytime.

eridu-tech is an adapter-first backend platform for TypeScript, purpose-built for developing and operating majestic modular monoliths. It provides a comprehensive ecosystem of officially maintained components—caching, locking, rate limiting, event buses, HTTP routing, resilience, and more—that integrate seamlessly with popular frameworks like Next.js, Nuxt, Express, and NestJS.

Built on a unified architecture of a single serialization engine, a single execution context, and composable middleware, eridu-tech keeps your code decoupled from vendors. Switch infrastructure without rewriting business logic, test everything without Docker using in-memory adapters, and stay type-safe from day one.

This guide covers the basics: installation and configuration.

Prerequisites

• Node.js installed (version 24 and up)
• npm/yarn/pnpm package manager

Installation

Run the following command to install the library:

npm install eridu-tech

Configuration

Set Module Type:

eridu-tech exclusively uses ESM (ECMAScript Modules). To configure your project:

1. Open your package.json
2. Add or update the type field:

{
    "type": "module"
    // ... your existing configurations
}

info

This is only required when running in Node.js. Frameworks like Next.js, SvelteKit.js and Nuxt.js use bundlers that support ESM modules automatically.
