Build on atproto without the hard parts.
HappyProto runs the backend: an API over 46 million accounts, auth, private data, and scripting.
We’ll only email to let you know that HappyProto is open, or that you were chosen for the closed beta. Your email is never shared or used outside of that.
All the data. None of the plumbing.
Define your data types to pull in history from across the network, then get new records in real time.
Sign-in, minus the OAuth work.
atproto OAuth is set up for you. People log in with the account they already have.
Private data, today.
atproto spaces keep permissioned data next to public records.
Your logic, your language.
Write your scripts in TypeScript, JavaScript, or Lua. Rust, Go, Zig, C/C++, and many more are on the way.
