I korthet

Fastify is a Node.js web framework engineered for speed. It's 2-3x faster than Express due to architecture choices: schema validation, smart caching, and efficient routing. Used by Uber, Netflix, and fintech platforms. The learning curve is identical to Express (similar API), but Fastify handles 10x more requests/sec. Senior Fastify engineers earn 10-20% premium because they squeeze performance: streaming responses, connection pooling, and sub-millisecond latency. Learning takes 1-2 weeks; production mastery takes 3-6 months. Fastify also teaches HTTP protocol deeply, transferring to any framework.

Vad är Fastify Performance

Fastify is a modern, high-performance Node.js web framework. Unlike Express (which processes requests serially), Fastify is engineered for concurrency and speed: efficient JSON schema validation, smart routing, and streaming response support. It's the framework of choice for performance-critical applications (trading, real-time analytics, high-traffic APIs). Fastify's killer feature: built-in JSON schema validation and OpenAPI doc generation. Define a schema, Fastify validates incoming requests automatically and serializes responses efficiently.

❓ Vanliga frågor

Is Fastify slower than Express?
No, Fastify is faster. Express: mature, slow. Fastify: newer, optimized. Benchmarks: Fastify 2-3x throughput vs. Express. Trade-off: Fastify smaller ecosystem.
Can I migrate from Express to Fastify?
Yes, APIs are similar. Fastify syntax slightly different (route handlers return value instead of calling res.send()). Ecosystem smaller, most packages work via Express wrappers.
What's JSON schema validation in Fastify?
Fastify uses JSON schemas for request validation. You define schema, Fastify validates + serializes. Faster than manual validation. Also generates OpenAPI docs automatically.
Does Fastify support TypeScript?
Yes, first-class TypeScript support. Automatic type generation from schemas. Type-safe request/response handling. Community actively uses TypeScript.
How does Fastify compare to Nest.js?
Fastify: lightweight, minimal. Nest.js: batteries-included (dependency injection, decorators, TypeORM). Fastify for APIs, Nest.js for large applications with complex structure.
