Typhon is a wrapper around Go's net/http library that we use at Monzo to build RPC servers and clients in our microservices platform. A wrapper around Go's net/http to provide safety and convenience. At Monzo, Typhon forms the basis of most clients and servers in our microservices platform. Forgetting to body.Close() in a client when the body has been dealt with is a common source of resource leaks in Go programs in our experience. Typhon ensures that – unless you're doing something really...

...Its design chiefly considers project structure, maintainability, standard http handlers (stdlib-only), developer productivity, and deconstructing a large system into many small parts. It is very lightweight and fast (according to benchmarks), yet is still able to include several useful subpackages (middleware, render and docgen).

go-safeweb is a security-focused HTTP framework for Go that bakes in secure defaults so common web vulnerabilities are harder to introduce. Instead of leaving headers and policies to ad-hoc middleware, it sets Content Security Policy, X-Frame-Options, and other protections by default, and centralizes template escaping rules. Request handling emphasizes principled APIs for parsing and validating input, reducing the risk of injection and deserialization bugs. The framework’s routing and response layers are designed to be explicit and auditable, making it clearer when unsafe behaviors are being opted into. ...

This is a tiny Go package that wraps HTTP handlers to transparently gzip the response body, for clients which support it. Although it's usually simpler to leave that to a reverse proxy (like nginx or Varnish), this package is useful when that's undesirable. Call GzipHandler with any handler (an object which implements the http.Handler interface), and it'll return a new handler which gzips the response.
