Please recommend a restful API framework in Golang

I didn't use any, so I wouldn't know but one thing that I've noticed is that a lot of people don't and a lot of people do so you might want to research that a bit.

Strictly speaking, because how powerful the standard lib is, the only piece of framework you really need is the router and you can use gorilla mux for that.

gin seems a very populate HTTP framework on which you can build a REST API.

On dev.to @codehakase wrote a tutorial on how to build a web app with gin:

Building a Web App With Go, Gin and React

Depending on the requirements of your REST API project:

• If it's a small project that doesn't need sessions/cookies, database integrations ...etc, then the standard library is sufficient.
  • One step up from the standard library would be an unopinionated framework like gin
• If it's a big project with time restraints/deadlines or requires features like database integrations, cookie/session management ...etc, then go with buffalo.
  • Check this tutorial out by the creator of the framework himself: youtube.com/watch?v=FqCHqZt0ZFE

I use a good boilerplate without a framework
github.com/dhax/go-base

I'd recommend Echo for its ease of use and comprehensive documentation.

this looks so shining. thanks @tommy8910

I would recommend using gRpc

• Provides http/2
• Provides streaming API
• Auto-Generates clients.
