aoxpress

An Express.js-like framework for building process handlers on the AO network.

Bringing the familiar Express.js development experience to the Permaweb.

aoxpress is a routing framework for AO that lowers the barrier to entry for Node.js developers, allowing them to build decentralized compute processes using syntax they already love.

⚡ Key Features

  • Express-like Syntax: Use app.get(), app.post(), and middleware just like in Web2.
  • ao-fetch: Built-in utility for simple, HTTP-like inter-process communication on AO.
  • Lightweight: Designed specifically for the constraints and capabilities of the AO computer.

🎯 Why It Matters

  • Low Learning Curve: Node.js developers can start building on AO immediately without learning Lua or complex message passing patterns.
  • Rapid Prototyping: Build handlers and routes in minutes.
