Introducing Harmony: Unified JavaScript Platform for Building Composable Frontends and Backends
Briefly

Bit Harmony is a lightweight NodeJS framework that uses a dependency-injection model to natively support components and Aspects. Developers can create modular Aspects that encapsulate frontend and backend functionality, enabling independent maintenance, testing, versioning, and reuse across multiple applications. The platform supports multiple runtimes such as BrowserRuntime and NodeJSRuntime, and allows opting out of browser runtimes for API or CLI projects. Standardized API integration enforces consistent interfaces across components. Bit Harmony integrates with Kubernetes and cloud-native environments for scalable deployment. The Symphony Platform Aspect provides a ready-made foundation and gateway for Harmony-based platforms.
Bit Harmony is a lightweight NodeJS framework that streamlines full-stack development using a dependency-injection model natively supporting components. It allows developers to build modular Aspects, which are self-contained, pluggable business features that can be reused across different applications. Key Benefits of Bit Harmony Unified Development - Develop frontend and backend components in a single, composable environment supporting different runtimes (browser, node.js etc.) Maximum Code Reuse - Aspects can be shared, versioned, and repurposed across multiple applications. Standardized API Integration - Ensures all components follow a consistent API structure. Seamless Deployment - Works with Kubernetes and cloud-native environments for scalable app deployment.
An Aspect in Harmony is a self-contained unit of functionality that provides both frontend and backend services. Think of it as a modular building block that can be independently maintained, tested, and deployed.

Then we can register the required runtimes (e.g BrowserRuntime , NodeJSRuntime ) which are directly supported by the platform. Choosing runtimes is optional. For example, if you are building purely an API or a CLI application, you can opt-out the BrowserRuntime.
