Nitric
Nitric is an open-source cloud framework and infrastructure-from-code SDK plus CLI for building cloud applications in TypeScript, Python, Go, or Dart. You declare resources - APIs, schedules, queues, topics, buckets, key-value stores, secrets, and websockets - directly in your application code, and Nitric provisions them across AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure via pluggable Pulumi or Terraform providers. Nitric is a framework / IaC tool, not a hosted REST API - the APIs you build are deployed to your own cloud.
Nitric publishes 11 APIs on the APIs.io network, including API Resource, Schedule Resource, Queue Resource, and 8 more. Tagged areas include Infrastructure from Code, Cloud Framework, SDK, CLI, and Serverless.
Nitric’s developer surface includes documentation and 7 more developer resources.
