Aperture Robotics

Full-stack for modular apps built with Go, TypeScript, and WebAssembly.

Aperture Robotics
 

Modular, lightweight, cross-platform apps with Go and TypeScript.

Aperture Robotics is an open source focused organization building
a next-generation development stack for apps w/ Go, Wasm, TypeScript.

Self-host anything in the browser. Local-first apps with optional cloud sync, built on the Aperture Robotics stack.

  • 🌐 Local-first Apps run in the browser against an OPFS-backed object store
  • ☁️ Optional cloud Fast cross-device sync and backup on Cloudflare
  • 🦫 Portable Same Go code runs as WASM in the browser and natively as a CLI
  • 🧩 Composable ObjectTypes, plugins, and packfile-based content addressing

🏗️ Projects

Spacewave is built on the App Stack below. Get started building your own application on the stack with the project template!

🧱 App Stack

  • ControllerBus - Dynamically configurable communicating control loops
  • Bifrost - Cross-platform networking engine with pluggable transports
  • goscript - Transpile Go to TypeScript
  • ocpipe - Build LLM pipelines with OpenCode and Zod

SkiffOS logo SkiffOS

SkiffOS is a minimal Linux distribution designed to run containers on embedded devices. It uses Buildroot to cross-compile a tiny system image with support for Docker and other container runtimes. SkiffOS enables running any Linux distribution or application in lightweight containers on embedded hardware.

🪶 Lightweight Protobuf

These are lightweight reflection-free code-generation based implementations of Protobuf designed to optimize binary size and performance, especially for WebAssembly (wasm) applications.

Protobuf libraries like protobuf-es and protobuf-go focus on spec compliance and feature-complete implementations. These lite libraries focus on just the base proto2 and proto3 spec including RPCs to simplify the implementation.

🔌 QuickJS WASI Reactor

Run QuickJS-NG JavaScript engine in Go and TypeScript using the WASI reactor model for re-entrant execution:

📚 Libraries

Common Go/TypeScript libraries:

  • Common - Common project configuration files and Protobuf toolchain.
  • Util - Go utilities for easy concurrent programming.
  • go-kvfile - File format for storing a compressed key/value store
