Macaron Logo

Package macaron is a high productive and modular web framework in Go.

📣 Announcement

  • If you're considering using Macaron, you may want to take a look at Flamego first, which is the successor of the Macaron.
  • That means Macaron is officially in the maintenance mode, and no major features will be added to Macaron.

Getting Started

The minimum requirement of Go is 1.18.

To install Macaron:

go get gopkg.in/macaron.v1

The very basic usage of Macaron:

package main

import "gopkg.in/macaron.v1"

func main() {
	m := macaron.Classic()
	m.Get("/", func() string {
		return "Hello world!"
	})
	m.Run()
}
