## What it is
Platformatic Watt is an open-source Node.js application server that runs any Node.js application (in any framework) inside worker threads, providing multi-core scaling, auto-healing, and built-in observability. It is a monorepo of composable tools for building, running, and orchestrating HTTP services, API gateways, and frontends on a single runtime.

## Use cases
- run my nodejs app across multiple cpu cores
- scale a node.js application server in kubernetes
- add observability and health checks to node services
- consolidate microservices and bffs into one process
- build rest and graphql apis with fastify
- auto-restart crashed node workers without downtime
- reduce p95 latency for a single-threaded node app

## When to choose
- you run Node.js services in containers and need multi-core utilization and stability
- you want out-of-the-box logging, metrics, tracing, and profiling outside your app process
- you want to compose HTTP services, API gateways, and frontends into one runtime

## When to avoid
- you need a runtime outside the Node.js ecosystem
- your app is a simple low-traffic service where a plain process manager suffices
- you require a fully managed platform rather than self-operated open-source tooling
