PartyKit provides serverless real-time infrastructure with stateful servers at the edge. Built on Cloudflare Durable Objects. Now part of Cloudflare.
Reviewer scorecard
“Perfect for prototyping. I described a dashboard and had a working app in 3 minutes. Not production-ready, but unbeatable for speed-to-demo.”
“Stateful edge servers are the right abstraction for real-time. The Cloudflare acquisition ensures long-term viability.”
“Impressive demo, but the generated code is messy and you'll rewrite most of it. If you can't code, you can't fix what it breaks. Know what you're getting into.”
“Durable Objects made simple. For real-time features without WebSocket infrastructure complexity, PartyKit is excellent.”
“As a creator who needs quick landing pages and MVPs, this is a game-changer. I built a waitlist page with email capture in under 5 minutes.”
“Edge-first real-time infrastructure is the future of multiplayer applications. PartyKit is building that.”
