Instead of Encore
Encore alternatives
Encore helps backend and platform teams define services, databases, Pub/Sub and caches in application code, then run that backend locally and deploy the same declarations to AWS or GCP. Its GitHub-connected CI/CD, pull-request environments, tracing, metrics, architecture diagrams and generated API documentation keep development and operations together. TypeScript and Go have the full feature set, and the platform supports Docker, Git, persistent storage, autoscaling and multi-region deployment. A free Starter plan is available; Pro starts at $49 per member monthly, with additional environment, resource and cloud-provider charges.
