tinyhttp VS Hapi

After this I really hit the ball rolling and was able to find more issues to work on. One thing that I enjoyed was that all of my PRs were drastically different from each other. I worked on correcting documentation for AdonisJS, fixed a HTTP Content-Type Header bug in tiny-http, and then finally even created a short script for users to load up their own local version of the Electron documentation site.

I worked on Issue 360. Essentially, when a user would set the "Content-Type" header before returning the file, the framework would overwrite the "previous" header, with the type that it determined from the files type.

tinyhttp: a modern web framework written in TypeScript. It uses tsm in its documentation examples as a simple way to get users up and running quickly

The framework I decided to use today was tinyhttp, with an API similar to Express, I don't have a specific reason to use this framework and the example code is easily replicated to other frameworks.

I tend to use hapi (https://hapi.dev) instead of Express if I need to write a quick backend for something these days.

Fastify looks nice too but I haven't used it.

Been burnt by full-stack frameworks in the past (e.g. Meteor) but they can be a good option for some.

Hapi.js commonly referred to as "hapi," is an open-source web application framework for building web and application server systems in Node.js.

Hapi – The Simple, Secure Framework Developers Trust

Hapi.js is one of the best Node.js web framework, which is used for developing application program interfaces. Thanks to a strong plugin system Hapi.js, you can fully manage the development process. Hapi.js motivates the devel­oper to focus on the reuse logic instead of spending time building the infrastructure.

does not seem so https://github.com/hapijs/hapi/releases/tag/v21.0.0 (ok, I'm nitpicking on that one)

Joi validator used to be part of hapi but then became a standalone library that you can use everywhere where validation is needed. So for example, here's how username validation can be done:
