Web Frameworks

The default choice for a fast, minimal HTTP router with middleware support — still the most-starred web framework in the ecosystem, and a reasonable one to reach for first.

A lightweight, idiomatic router built entirely on net/http's own interfaces — nothing to learn that isn't already stdlib-shaped.

Gin's closest competitor: a similar performance profile with different middleware ergonomics and more built-in helpers.

An Express-inspired framework built on fasthttp rather than net/http — fast, but it opts out of the standard library's HTTP interfaces, which is worth knowing before committing to it.
