ForkQueue is a simple Node.js queue library (v0.0.8) that uses child_process.fork to distribute queue items to worker processes. Workers request the next item via 'next' messages, enabling parallel processing. It has no dependencies, is minimal and lightweight, but is in early development with no recent updates (last release 0.0.8). Unlike Bull or Bee-Queue, it lacks persistence, prioritization, or advanced features. Suitable for basic parallel task processing in Node.js.
