RedwoodJS
Full-stack web framework that combines React, GraphQL, Prisma and TypeScript for building web applications.
RedwoodJS is a full-stack framework built on React. The default database is SQLite, and the local Postgres guide covers running Postgres on a developer’s machine for projects that use it in production.
Redwood supports prerendering at build time, which renders the pages to HTML before deployment. The deployment docs describe three shapes: a static web build served as files, a server that keeps the API process running under PM2, and serverless functions on hosted platforms.
Worth knowing
The docs banner and the README announce RedwoodSDK, a separate project in its own repository, and the README describes an unreleased development epoch named Bighorn. The Serverless Framework deploy target to AWS Lambdas is marked deprecated on its page.
