Official documentation repository for Velyx — a developer-first real-time infrastructure platform.
Velyx is a real-time event delivery layer designed for modern applications.
It allows you to:
- Publish events from your backend
- Deliver them instantly to connected clients
- Manage real-time connections without handling scaling, reconnections, or routing logic
Velyx focuses on simplicity, reliability, and developer experience.
This repository exists to:
- Maintain clear and accurate documentation for Velyx
- Improve developer experience through good explanations and examples
- Allow the community to contribute to docs in an open way
If you’re looking for the Velyx source code, this repository focuses only on documentation.
The documentation site is built using:
- Next.js — documentation framework
- TypeScript — type safety
- NextAuth.js — authentication (Google OAuth)
- JWT — backend authentication tokens
- Tailwind CSS — styling
Below is a high-level, conceptual overview of how Velyx works.
This diagram focuses on data flow, not internal implementation details.
- Clients connect to Velyx using WebSockets
- Clients subscribe to topics
- Backend services publish events via HTTP
- Velyx delivers events to all active subscribers in real time
This separation keeps application backends stateless and scalable.
