Temporal is a microservice orchestration platform which enables developers to build scalable applications without sacrificing productivity or reliability. Temporal server executes units of application logic, Workflows, in a resilient manner that automatically handles intermittent failures, and retries failed operations.
Temporal is a mature technology, a fork of Uber's Cadence. Temporal is being developed by Temporal Technologies, a startup by the creators of Cadence.

Execute the following commands to start a pre-built image along with all the dependencies.
$ git clone https://github.com/temporalio/docker-compose.git
$ cd docker-compose
$ docker-compose up
Refer to Temporal docker-compose repo for more advanced options.
Clone or download samples for Go or Java and run them with the local Temporal server. We have a number of HelloWorld type scenarios available, as well as more advanced ones. Note that the sets of samples are currently different between Go and Java.
Use Temporal's command line tool tctl
to interact with the local Temporal server.
$ alias tctl="docker exec temporal-admin-tools tctl"
$ tctl namespace list
$ tctl workflow list
Try Temporal Web UI by opening http://localhost:8088 for viewing your sample workflows executing on Temporal.
This repository contains the source code of the Temporal server. To implement Workflows, Activities and Workers, use Go SDK or Java SDK.
