About Trigger.dev
Trigger.dev is the open-source platform for running background jobs in TypeScript applications. The platform provides durable execution, automatic retries, scheduling, and workflow orchestration for tasks that cannot run in the request-response cycle of a web server.
The platform handles the infrastructure complexity of job queues, worker management, and failure recovery, letting developers focus on writing their business logic. Trigger.dev supports long-running tasks (up to 24 hours), scheduled cron jobs, and event-driven workflows.
Popular with developers building on Next.js and other serverless-friendly frameworks, Trigger.dev fills the gap left by the lack of persistent compute in modern hosting platforms. The open-source core can be self-hosted, while the cloud platform provides managed infrastructure.
