  Project mention: chai - a library for type safe http handlers via generics with automatic swagger generation | reddit.com/r/golang | 2022-01-04

  chai is an extension for a few popular http routers (chi, gorilla/mux) that adds support for type safe http handlers via Go 1.18's generics. This allows it to also generate a swagger spec by automatically detecting the request/response types, http methods, route paths and path params.

• oapi-codegen

  Project mention: should i use something like gin, mux and etc or just go with the base? | reddit.com/r/golang | 2022-01-01

  Usually, for small services using the std should be more than enough. Just make sure to not use the default server. If you need complex routing and middlewares, then Chi can help. If your service layer is transport-agnostic, you could use something like https://github.com/deepmap/oapi-codegen or https://www.apibuilder.io/
