I korthet

Fiber is a minimalist Go web framework inspired by Express.js, focused on speed and simplicity. It handles 1M+ requests/second per instance (vs ~50k/sec for typical frameworks). Practitioners use Fiber for high-throughput APIs, microservices, and real-time backends. Learning curve is 1-2 weeks if you know Go. Salary premium: 10-15% for Fiber specialists in fintech and trading where latency is money. Fiber projects are 3x faster to ship than Java Spring Boot with 1/10th the memory footprint.

Vad är Fiber Go Fast

Fiber is a high-performance web framework for Go, inspired by Express.js (Node). It prioritizes speed and minimal boilerplate. A Fiber server can handle 1M+ requests per second on a single instance. It's built on fasthttp, a performance-focused HTTP library that differs from Go's standard net/http by reducing memory allocations and using efficient buffer reuse. Fiber handles routing, middleware, parameter binding, and templating. Its simplicity and speed make it ideal for microservices, APIs, and real-time backends where latency is critical.

❓ Vanliga frågor

What makes Fiber faster than other Go frameworks (Gin, Echo, Chi)?
Fiber uses fasthttp under the hood instead of Go's standard net/http. Fasthttp avoids allocations, reuses buffers, and processes requests with fewer goroutines. Trade-off: fasthttp is non-standard, some edge-case HTTP features don't work. For 99% of APIs, Fiber's speed matters; for the 1% needing full HTTP compliance, use Echo.
Should I use Fiber or Gin?
Fiber: faster, simpler, best for throughput-sensitive APIs (trading, payments, streaming). Gin: more mature, better docs, better for traditional web apps. If latency matters, Fiber. If ecosystem matters, Gin.
How do I do database queries in Fiber?
Use standard Go database/sql or an ORM (GORM, sqlc). Fiber just handles HTTP routing. DB integration is the same as any Go app. Example: `database/sql` + PostgreSQL driver + query in handler.
Can Fiber handle WebSockets?
Yes, via Fiber WebSocket middleware. Simple example: upgrade connection, read/write frames, handle goroutines per connection. Performance is excellent because of fasthttp.
Is Fiber production-ready?
Yes. Major companies use it (Shopify, Discord, Uber internal tools). Stable API since v2.0. Community is active. Caveat: smaller than Gin ecosystem, but core functionality is solid.
