## What it is
Prologue is a powerful and flexible web framework written in Nim for building high-performance web services and applications. It provides routing, middleware, plugins for auth, sessions, websockets, and more with an explicit, low-magic design philosophy.

## Use cases
- build a web api in nim
- create an async web application
- serve http endpoints with routing and middleware
- add websocket support to a nim backend
- build a full-stack web app with sessions and auth
- develop high-performance web services

## When to choose
- you want a batteries-included web framework in Nim
- you need async, high-performance HTTP services
- you want explicit, predictable framework behavior with minimal magic
- you need built-in plugins like i18n, CORS, CSRF, and sessions

## When to avoid
- your team does not use or want to learn Nim
- you need a framework with a huge ecosystem and community
- you prefer mainstream languages like Python, Node, or Go for web backends

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: active
- function: web-framework, http-server, routing, middleware, websocket, templating, auth, caching, internationalization
- domain: web-development, backend, apis
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: nim, async, http-framework, full-stack, openapi, csrf-protection, session-management, web-server
