Solidis – Strongly Typed, Most Tiny Redis Client

[Lomanu4]

Hey everyone! ?

I'm new to this community, so I would really appreciate a warm welcome. If I'm posting something inappropriate or out of line as a newcomer, please kindly let me know — I’ll make sure to correct it.

Over the past two years I threw myself back into full-time engineering with a simple goal: write code that gives back to the community. After a lot of late-night FOMO (“AI will do it all for us, right?”) and some painful production incidents, I finally turned my weekend project into an open-source library.

What is

Пожалуйста Авторизируйтесь или Зарегистрируйтесь для просмотра скрытого текста.

?

• Super-light (< 30 KB) RESP2/RESP3 client with zero runtime deps and first-class ESM/CJS support.

• 
  Fully tree-shakable – import only the commands you need.
  
  
• 
  Written with SOLID principles & full TypeScript typings for every command.
  
  
• 
  Designed for cold-start sensitive serverless platforms (small bundle + tiny memory footprint).
  

Why I built it

1. 
   node-redis & ioredis pain
   
   • ESM is still an after-thought.
   • Hidden deadlocks on RST, vague error surfaces.
   • Everything gets bundled, even commands you’ll never call.
2. 
   I refuse to add a dependency I don’t fully understand – I literally read candidates 10× before npm i.
   
   
3. 
   Serverless bills love to remind me that every KB and millisecond matters.

Roadmap / Help wanted

• 
  Benchmarks against node-redis & ioredis (PRs welcome!)
  
  
• 
  More first-class Valkey love
  
  
• 
  Fuzz-testing the parser
  
  
• 
  Docs site – the README came first; I’d love help polishing full docs
  

This might be my last big OSS push for a while, so stars, issues, and PRs mean the world.

If Solidis saves you some cold-start time or just scratches a TypeScript itch, let me know!
