Echo VS Gin

I'm thinking of recreating something like silverbullet using Vite, Svelte, Echo, Sqlite, anime, and web sockets. I'll host it in Docker on my mini server, access it via Tailscale and back it up with restic to Azure. I have some vague idea of building a web app that is both the editor and the app at the same time. Like a game where you build the game by playing the game, but with markdown and magic. Perfect side project fodder.

i prefer echo https://echo.labstack.com/ but from these two, i'd choose fiber

labstack/echo

Echo

I use https://echo.labstack.com/, it's minimalist. Pocketbase also uses Echo.

2. echo. Golang's echo framework is a high-performance, extensible, and simple web framework. It intelligently prioritizes routes and has a highly optimized HTTP router with no dynamic memory allocation. It is used to create dependable, scalable, and easily segmentable REST APIs. It supports HTTP/2, which increases speed and offers a better user experience, and automatically installs TLS certificates from Let's Encrypt. Additionally, there are numerous built-in middlewares available for use, and programmers can even create their own custom middlewares that can be set at the root, group, or route level. The echo framework's disadvantage is that there is just one developer who maintains it, and there aren't many updates to the code. Documentation Link: https://github.com/labstack/echo

Hertz was inspired by other open-source frameworks like fasthttp, gin, and echo, in combination with unique challenges faced by ByteDance, Hertz has become production ready and powered ByteDance’s internal services over the years.

Disclaimer: I'm not a frontend dev, I'm not a mobile app coder and I didn't really want to do anything. But I happen to code fairly often in Go, and so I figured the type table was really just a big map of values (either 0, 0.5, 1 or 2) tying one type to all other types... Could I maybe get away with a backend app that would handle it? Surely not... But I had recently noticed the Gin HTTP framework and it seemed fairly easy to use.

gin-gonic/gin

Web framework gin

A lot of places seem to suggest https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin , but it seems too micro for my tastes. There's https://github.com/gobuffalo/buffalo that seems to have the appropriate amount of kitchen sinks included, but does it pass the popularity test? Any other options I've missed?

Gin

I started my project with developing API server in Golang. For the HTTP library I used Gin framework, as it provides an friendly interface to build REST ready API.

Gin is a popular library that claims to use zero heap allocation, for instance.
