Air

An ideal RESTful web framework for Go. You can use it to build a RESTful web application as natural as breathing.

High-performance? Fastest? Almost all the web frameworks are using these words to tell people that they are the best. Maybe they are, maybe not. Air does not intend to follow the crowd. It can only guarantee you one thing: it can serve properly.

Gases

As we all know that the air is a mixture of gases. So the same is that this framework adopts the gas as its composition. Everyone can create new gas and use it within this framework simply.

A gas is a function chained in the HTTP request-response cycle with access to air.Request and air.Response which it uses to perform a specific action, for example, logging every request or recovering from panics.

If you are looking for some useful gases, simply visit here.
