Hey HN - over the past few months, I’ve been working on Hatchet, which is a workflow engine for Go applications. In particular, the goal is to make it easier to build event-based systems — workflows are triggered by user-defined events (along with predefined schedules and cron jobs).<p>Docs: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.hatchet.run" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.hatchet.run</a><p>And a quickstart repo: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hatchet-dev&#x2F;hatchet-go-quickstart">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;hatchet-dev&#x2F;hatchet-go-quickstart</a><p>TL;DR - Hatchet lets you:<p>1. Schedule and run your Go methods, useful for background jobs and batch processing<p>2. Publish, react to, and query events using the Events API [1]<p>3. Replace your task queue (internally, Hatchet uses RabbitMQ, with support for a more lightweight Postgres-based task queue on the roadmap)<p>There&#x27;s lots still to build, but would love to hear any feedback so far.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.hatchet.run&#x2F;go-sdk&#x2F;pushing-events" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.hatchet.run&#x2F;go-sdk&#x2F;pushing-events</a>
