Egg.js is an enterprise-grade web framework for Node.js built on top of Koa, emphasizing convention over configuration and a powerful plugin system. It provides built-in process management, framework customization, and a rich ecosystem of plugins for building large-scale backend applications.
Use cases
- build a REST API server in Node.js
- enterprise backend web framework with plugin ecosystem
- build MVC web applications on Koa
- create a scalable Node.js server with built-in process management
- customize a team-specific framework on top of Koa
- build a website with server-side rendering in Node.js
When to choose
- you want a batteries-included, convention-driven Node.js backend framework
- you need a plugin architecture and framework customization for large teams
- you are building enterprise applications on Koa with proven production reliability
When to avoid
- you prefer minimal, unopinionated frameworks like Express or Fastify
- your team is new to Node.js and wants the largest community ecosystem
- you need a framework outside the Node.js runtime
