Build robust, durable workflows with Inngest's step methods. Each step is a separate HTTP request that can be independently retried and monitored.
These skills are focused on TypeScript. For Python or Go, refer to the Inngest documentation for language-specific guidance. Core concepts apply across all languages.
🔄 Critical: Each step re-runs your function from the beginning. Put ALL non-deterministic code (API calls, DB queries, randomness) inside steps, never outside.
Use Inngest step methods to build durable workflows. Covers step.run, step.sleep, step.waitForEvent, step.waitForSignal, step.sendEvent, step.invoke, step.ai, and patterns for loops and parallel execution. Source: joelhooks/joelclaw.
