A flexible web framework that promotes stability, safety, security and speed.

Features

1. Stability focused. All releases target stable Rust. This will never change. To ensure future compatibility, we also run automated builds against Rust beta and nightly releases.
2. Statically typed. The Gotham web framework is statically typed ensuring your application is correctly expressed at compile time.
3. Async everything. By leveraging the Tokio project, all Gotham web framework types are async out of the box. Our async story is further enhanced by Hyper, a fast server that provides an elegant layer over stringly typed HTTP.
4. Blazingly fast. Measure completed requests, including the 99th percentile, in µs.
