Moro

Modern TypeScript framework with intelligent routing, ESM, and extreme performance

Website • Documentation • Quick Start • Discord

Why MoroJS?

Build high-performance APIs with intelligent routing that automatically orders middleware execution. Deploy anywhere: Node.js, Vercel Edge, AWS Lambda, or Cloudflare Workers - same code, zero configuration.

Key Features:

• 200k+ req/s - built-in clustering or uWebSockets.js integration (single core)
• Intelligent Routing - Automatic middleware ordering, no configuration needed
• Enterprise Auth - Built-in Auth.js with OAuth & RBAC
• Universal Validation - Works with Zod, Joi, Yup, or Class Validator
• Message Queues - Production-ready queues (Bull, RabbitMQ, SQS, Kafka)
• gRPC Support - Native gRPC for high-performance microservices
• Multi-Runtime - Deploy to Node.js, Edge, Lambda, or Workers
• Powerful CLI - Scaffold projects, generate modules, deploy with one command
• Zero Dependencies - Lightweight core with optional integrations

Performance

| Framework | Req/sec | Latency | Memory | Notes | |-----------|---------|---------|--------|-------| | Moro + uWebSockets.js | 200,000+ | 3.93ms | 25MB | Single core | | Moro (Clustering) | 190,000+ | 3.62ms | 24MB | Multi-core | | Moro (Standard) | 87,000 | 7.8ms | 14MB | Single core | | Fastify | 38,120 | 2.9ms | 35MB | Single core | | Express | 28,540 | 3.8ms | 45MB | Single core | | NestJS | 22,100 | 4.5ms | 58MB | Single core |

uWebSockets.js achieves multi-core performance on a single core - perfect for WebSockets and serverless. Clustering scales across CPU cores for traditional HTTP workloads.

Quick Start

Install Manually

npm install @morojs/moro

import { createApp, z } from '@morojs/moro';

const app = createApp();

// Intelligent routing - order doesn't matter!
app.post('/users')
   .body(z.object({
     name: z.string().min(2),
     email: z.string().email()
   }))
   .rateLimit({ requests: 10, window: 60000 })
   .handler((req, res) => {
     // req.body is fully typed and validated
     return { success: true, data: req.body };
   });

app.listen(3000);

Or Use the CLI

Scaffold a complete project with auth, database, WebSockets, and deployment ready:

npm install -g @morojs/cli
morojs-cli init my-api --runtime=node --database=postgresql --features=auth,websocket,docs
cd my-api
npm run dev

Ultra-High Performance (Optional)

// uWebSockets.js - 200k+ req/s on single core
const app = createApp({
  server: {
    useUWebSockets: true
  }
});

// Or combine with worker thread clustering for even more power
const app = createApp({
  server: {
    useUWebSockets: true
  },
  performance: {
    clustering: {
      enabled: true,
      workers: 4  // or 'auto' for CPU count
    }
  }
});

See uWebSockets Guide

Deploy Everywhere

Same code, multiple platforms:

// Node.js
app.listen(3000);

// Vercel Edge
export default app.getHandler();

// AWS Lambda
export const handler = app.getHandler();

// Cloudflare Workers
export default { fetch: app.getHandler() };
