Macaron is a high-productivity, modular web framework for Go, inspired by Martini, featuring a fast multi-tree router, dependency injection, and a rich middleware ecosystem. It is officially in maintenance mode with Flamego as its successor.

Use cases

  • build web apps and APIs in Go
  • serve static files and templates with a Go web framework
  • add middleware like sessions, caching, csrf, and i18n to a Go server
  • integrate a router into an existing Go http.Handler server
  • understand the framework behind Gogs and Grafana

When to choose

  • you are maintaining or contributing to a project already built on Macaron such as Gogs
  • you want a Martini-style framework with dependency injection and modular middlewares

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new Go web project - use its successor Flamego or a mainstream framework like Gin or Echo
  • you need a framework with active feature development and long-term support
