SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Developing real-time, multi-user applications with low latency is complex and hardware-scale sensitive. PartyKit provides an edge-first runtime with rooms and durable storage to simplify building collaborative apps, games, or AI agents that require stateful WebSocket servers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stateful WebSocket servers with on-demand rooms for scalable collaboration.
  • Global distribution and edge-backed Durable Objects for low-latency, geo-distributed apps.
  • HTTP request handling, room lifecycle, and client APIs to manage connections and persistence.

Quick Start

Install PartyKit, scaffold a new project with npm create partykit@latest my-app, and start development with npm run dev.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build stateful WebSocket servers for real-time multiplayer apps?

Stateful WebSocket servers for multiplayer apps are built using edge-first deployment with on-demand rooms and Durable Objects backing storage to manage connections and persistence globally.

What is the best way to handle room lifecycle and state persistence at the edge?

Edge computing room lifecycle and state persistence are handled via on-demand rooms and Durable Objects, providing client APIs to manage connections and scalable collaboration across global regions.

Can I use Durable Objects for geo-distributed low-latency collaboration?

Durable Objects support geo-distributed, low-latency collaboration through global distribution and edge-backed storage, enabling scalable multiplayer experiences across global regions.

How do I scaffold and start developing a real-time collaborative web application?

Scaffold a real-time collaborative web application by running npm create partykit@latest my-app, then start local development with npm run dev to manage connections and room lifecycle.

Does this platform support HTTP request handling alongside WebSocket connections?

HTTP request handling is supported alongside stateful WebSocket servers, allowing you to manage room lifecycle, client APIs, and persistence simultaneously for collaborative web apps.

When do I need edge-backed Durable Objects for multiplayer application architecture?

Edge-backed Durable Objects are needed for multiplayer application architecture when developing low-latency, hardware-scale sensitive apps requiring stateful WebSocket servers and on-demand rooms.
