What is YasuiJS?
Yasui (meaning "easy" in Japanese) is a lightweight multi-runtime framework built on Web Standards and pushed with SRVX, that brings the developer experience of modern frameworks without the complexity. It runs on Node.js, Deno, and Bun, providing the structure you need with just the features you'll actually use.
Features Summary
- Multi-Runtime: Runs on Node.js, Deno, and Bun via SRVX and Web Standards
- Lightweight & Fast: Minimal dependencies with focus on essentials without the bloat
- Complete Error Handling: Everything can throw without try/catch - automatic error handling everywhere
- Automatic Type-Casting: Query params automatically converted to proper types. Even in middlewares
- Flexible DI System: Constructor and method-level injection with configurable scopes for better control
- Simple Middlewares: Apply at global, controller, or route level. Use the same decorators as controllers
- Rich Swagger Generation: Flexible decorators for enums, arrays, classes, OpenAPI schemas
- HTTPS/HTTP2 Support: Built-in TLS configuration with automatic HTTP/2 on Node.js
- Type-safe: Full TypeScript support with proper typing
Quick Start
npm install yasuiimport yasui, { Controller, Get } from 'yasui';
@Controller('/')
export class AppController {
@Get('/')
hello() {
return { message: 'Hello World!' };
}
}
yasui.createServer({
controllers: [AppController]
});📖 Documentation

Why YasuiJS?
YasuiJS adopts a class-based, object-oriented approach with decorators, bringing significant architectural advantages:
Better Code Organization
Classes and decorators provide better organization, encapsulation, and maintainability. This approach naturally supports established architectural patterns like onion architecture, hexagonal architecture, and clean architecture.
Dependency Injection
Built-in dependency injection enables loose coupling, better testability, and cleaner separation of concerns. Dependencies are explicitly declared and automatically resolved.
Declarative Over Imperative
Instead of manually registering routes and extracting parameters, you declare what you want using decorators. The framework handles the implementation details.
Multi-Runtime Support
Built on web standards, YasuiJS provides a portable, standard codebase for JavaScript runtimes, capable of running on Node.js, Deno, and Bun with SRVX, a universal server abstraction based on the Fetch API. Future-proof your applications with standard web APIs.
