# Run durable agent tasks and event-driven workflows with Hatchet

Use Hatchet to queue, retry, pause, resume, observe, and scale long-running agent tasks and background workflows.

## Prerequisites

Hatchet CLI, Docker for local setup, Hatchet workers, and application code in Python, TypeScript, Go, Ruby, or another supported runtime

- To run Hatchet locally, the fastest path for setup is to install the Hatchet CLI (on MacOS, Linux or WSL) - note that this requires [Docker](https://www.docker.com/get-started) installed locally to work:
- **When to use Hatchet:** when you'd like to use a DAG-based framework, write your own integrations and functions, and require higher throughput (>100/s)
