Confetti Framework

Confetti is a web framework written in Go, with routing, middleware and validation. The documentation builds an endpoint from a controller function and a route registered with handler.New, with middleware wrapping each request before it reaches the controller. Controllers return errors to a central error handler in internal/pkg/handler, which the documentation describes as the place where logging and error reporting are customized.

A project starts from the framework’s GitHub template repository. The installation guide runs the API server with go run cmd/api/main.go api:serve, and configuration is read from environment variables through typed helpers in the config package.

Worth knowing

The framework runs as a process that listens for HTTP requests, so a site or API built on it needs a host that can run a Go program rather than a host that serves static files.

The project’s documentation names no database; it says only that the configuration covers a database connection.
