TypeDB Drivers
Welcome to the TypeDB driver documentation!
Introduction
To build an application on TypeDB, we need to use a TypeDB language driver to communicate with the server.
TypeDB drivers implement the TypeDB RPC protocol and provide language-specific native APIs. They are available for some of the most popular programming languages: Rust, Python, Node.js, Java, Node.js, C#, C++, and C.
Driver architecture
TypeDB drivers share a common architecture and capabilities. The key components are providing a native-language API, opening and managing connections, controlling transactions, validating and sending queries, and processing responses. TypeDB servers accept client connections via gRPC based on the TypeDB protocol.
The following diagram illustrates the structure of a TypeDB driver.

The Java, Python, C#, C++, and C drivers are implemented as wrappers on top of the Rust driver via an FFI interface.
The Node.js driver is implemented independently.
