    lightweight, idiomatic and composable router for building Go HTTP services

  • Yeah, the idiomatic (and fast) chi router does this (https://github.com/go-chi/chi#url-parameters). Routing information in stored within a chi Context (https://github.com/go-chi/chi/blob/c9e87efe9691a63d6a89de8bb...) within the request context, simply because there isn't any other way of transmitting data across http handlers.

    Echo and Gin have their own Context structs, except instead of http.Request wrapping their Context struct, their Context struct wraps http.Request (thereby rendering it incompatible with the stdlib). It's not a far stretch to have these frameworks retrieve their Context from the http.Request. Instead of

        // echo Handler

  • Echo

    High performance, minimalist Go web framework

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • template

    🧬 Template engine middleware for Fiber (by gofiber)

  • Their rendering handling seems to be a lot better than gofiber's[1] which downloads nearly 1,000 packages and sadly ruled it out as a viable framework when I was looking for web frameworks to use.

  • letsblockit

    Remove low-quality content and useless nags, focus on what matters. A community-maintained uBlock Origin filter set.

  • - it does indeed use a custom handler function signature, but in my opinion this one is better (returning errors instead of handling them locally in each handler). You can still use handlers and middlewares written for other frameworks (for example the great statigz[3] handler) through the `echo.WrapHandler` and `echo.WrapMiddleware` functions

  • statigz

    Statigz serves pre-compressed embedded files with http in Go

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
