About Trigger.dev
A background jobs and task queue platform for running long-running code outside of normal request cycles.
Trigger.dev lets developers define and run background jobs, scheduled tasks, and event-driven workflows directly in their codebase. It handles queuing, retries, logging, and observability so teams can offload work that would otherwise time out in serverless functions or block web requests. It targets Node.js developers building applications that need reliable async task execution.
Where to start
Install the Node.js SDK and connect it to a Trigger.dev project to start defining jobs in your codebase. The Trigger.dev dashboard provides visibility into job runs, logs, and failures.
