Fiber is an Express‑inspired web framework for Go built on top of the high‑performance Fasthttp engine. It provides routing, middleware, templating and other utilities to build fast HTTP servers with minimal memory allocation.

Use cases

• build a high‑throughput REST API in Go
• create a lightweight microservice with low latency
• serve static files and HTML templates for a web app
• develop a real‑time WebSocket server
• rapidly prototype a web service with built‑in middleware
• replace a slower net/http server with a faster alternative

When to choose

• you need maximum performance and low memory overhead for Go web services
• you prefer an Express‑style API while staying in the Go ecosystem
• your project requires built‑in middleware and easy routing
• you want a framework that works seamlessly with Fasthttp

When to avoid

• your team relies heavily on the standard net/http API and cannot switch to Fasthttp
• you need deep integration with frameworks that only support net/http
• you require extensive out‑of‑the‑box features like GraphQL or gRPC without additional libraries
