koa-compose is a small utility that composes an array of Koa middleware into a single middleware function using the onion model. It is the core composition engine used by the Koa web framework.

Use cases

• compose koa middleware into one function
• chain async middleware with onion model
• reuse middleware outside of koa
• build custom middleware pipelines in node.js
• understand how koa middleware execution works

When to choose

• you are building or extending a Koa application
• you need promise-based middleware composition in Node.js
• you want a tiny dependency-free composition utility

When to avoid

• you use Express or another framework with its own middleware system
• you need framework features beyond composition
• you are not working in a Node.js/JavaScript environment
