How a self-calling function stays durable and content-addressed when every invocation is its own durable promise.
A Resonate Python worker computes factorial recursively across a worker pool. Each invocation is a durable promise keyed by the input, so prior results are returned from the store on replay without re-execution.
How a self-calling calculator function distributes its sub-tasks across task groups while keeping each step a durable checkpoint.
Parse an arithmetic expression into a tree, then recursively dispatch each sub-expression to a worker pool and the operator to a separate pool. Every sub-expression is its own durable promise, so partial results survive crashes and the recursion is plain Python.
How a single recursive function plus durable-promise IDs gives you distributed computation and a permanent result cache in one shape.
Compute factorial(n) by having one function call itself across a worker group. Each call pairs with a durable promise keyed by n, so previously computed results return without recomputing.
How the same recursive fan-out / fan-in workflow runs across six deployment shapes in three languages.
A recursive LLM agent that decomposes a topic into subtopics and dispatches a fresh durable workflow per subtopic, with six sibling variants spanning plain Node, Cloudflare Workers, Google Cloud Functions, Supabase Edge Functions, Python, and Rust.
How a browser tab registers as a Resonate worker, claims recursive factorial invocations addressed by the poll://any@default invoke tag, and resumes its work after a refresh.
Host a Resonate worker inside a browser tab so durable invocations are claimed and executed by client-side code. The tab subscribes to the Resonate server over SSE, claims tasks for its worker group, and resumes work after a refresh because every step is a durable promise.
How recursion stays straight-line code when every invocation is its own durable promise.
A function that calls itself across worker processes, with each invocation backed by a durable promise so crashes resume from the last completed sub-call and repeat top-level calls return the stored result.
How a self-spawning workflow walks a social graph using context.detached, with each step durably checkpointed.
Walk a Bluesky follower graph to bounded depth by spawning a detached durable workflow per follower. Each step is a checkpoint; the recursion survives worker restarts.
