Croissant
A fast, easy to use Rest API Framework implemented in Golang
Croissant was inspired by [FastAPI](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/). It aims to implement FastAPI features such as Request Body Parsing, Built in Documentation Handling, and lastly, (but definitely not the least) less code required.
## Goals for the Project
I am aiming for > 90% test coverage of Croissant's source code. In addition to this, I also want Croissant to be completely type safe.
## Performance
Croissant's performance is on par with API's created with Golang's standard lib - `net/http`. This is because, as of now, it is just a simple wrapper around the library. It is likely to decrease in speed once more features are added, and I will definitely try to reduce the impact.
You can see the programs used for comparison in the [benchmarks directory](/benchmarks).
## Code Length
My primary goal for Croissant is to reduce the code needed for API's written in Golang.
*As of now, Croissant API's require more code than net/http. But remember, these values are taken from the benchmark programs, which only involve 1 route. In addition to this, Croissant doesn't provide much more than net/http at the moment. So these values are not suitable to compare with, and are more than likely to change in the future.*
1. Framework - The framework used while performing tests
2. Code Length - Lines of code written, expressed with respect to Croissant (smaller is better)
3. Time - Milliseconds taken to serve 1k requests, at 10 concurrent requests (Baton is used to test)
| Framework | Code Length | Time |
|-----------|--------------|------|
| Croissant | 1 | 40 |
| net/http | 0.8 | 35 |
