  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Express

    Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for node.

    First line of https://expressjs.com/

  • chi

    lightweight, idiomatic and composable router for building Go HTTP services

    All that said, if you and your team can ship and maintain projects faster with Gin, then of course it's a good choice. Personally, I'm a fan of chi and not much else for the REST layer.

  • 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.

  • gofre

    A fast and low memory consumption web framework for Go with middleware support and without third-party dependencies

    Maybe you can try https://github.com/ixtendio/gofre which is a web framework that respects the Golang standards, has a nice error management and in some cases performs better than Gin. On top of that the pattern matching is much richer and better than Gin or Echo
