Echo is a high‑performance, minimalist web framework for Go. It provides a fast router, built‑in middleware, data binding, and automatic TLS support.

Use cases

• build fast RESTful APIs in Go
• create high‑throughput microservices with minimal overhead
• serve static assets and HTML templates efficiently
• add JWT authentication and other security middleware quickly
• enable automatic HTTPS with Let’s Encrypt out of the box
• prototype web services in minutes with a simple API

When to choose

• You need a lightweight, high‑performance Go web framework.
• You want zero‑allocation routing and built‑in middleware support.
• You prefer a minimalist API without unnecessary bloat.
• You require automatic TLS/HTTPS and HTTP/2 support.

When to avoid

• You need a full‑stack framework with built‑in ORM or view layer.
• Your project is not written in Go.
• You require extensive UI components or client‑side rendering.
