web.go is a lightweight web framework for Go inspired by Sinatra and web.py, offering regex-based URL routing, secure cookies, and fastcgi/scgi support. It compiles to native code for fast, simple backend web services without imposing scaffolding.

Use cases

  • build a simple REST API in Go
  • create a small web service with regex URL routing
  • serve static files efficiently from Go
  • write a sinatra-style web app in Go
  • run a lightweight backend behind fastcgi
  • handle GET and POST form parameters in a Go web app

When to choose

  • you want a minimal, no-scaffolding Go web framework with a familiar Sinatra-like API
  • you need a tiny, fast backend service with regex routing and secure cookies
  • you're maintaining an existing codebase already built on web.go

When to avoid

  • you need a modern, actively developed framework with middleware ecosystems like Gin, Echo, or Chi
  • you need HTTP/2, WebSockets, or modern Go net/http features out of the box
  • you're starting a new production project where long-term maintenance matters
