Every app has tasks that shouldn’t run while the user is waiting — sending emails, syncing data, generating reports. These are the perfect use case for Trigger.dev, a developer-friendly background job platform. Native TypeScript Experience Trigger.dev integrates directly into your codebase, so you can write jobs in the same stack you use for the rest of your app. No separate dashboards or YAML jungles — just pure TypeScript. Scheduled, Delayed, or Event-Driven Whether you need cron jobs, webhook-driven flows, or delayed tasks, Trigger.dev handles it. Plus, you can chain jobs together and even get real-time logs for debugging. Built for Reliability Jobs survive deploys, retries happen automatically, and the platform scales without you having to manage queues or workers yourself. Why I Like It Easy integration — Just import and write functions Great observability — Watch every step in real time Time-saver — No infrastructure headaches For me, Trigger.dev makes background processing feel like a natural extension of my app — not an afterthought.
