Experimental Handlers
------------

Most of the experimental handlers are ported to work with _iris_'s handler form, from third-party sources.

Third-Party Handlers
------------

iris has its own middleware form of `func(ctx context.Context)` but it's also compatible with all `net/http` middleware forms. See [here](https://github.com/kataras/iris/tree/master/_examples/convert-handlers).

Here's a small list of useful third-party handlers:

| Middleware | Description |
| -----------|-------------|
| [goth](https://github.com/markbates/goth) | OAuth, OAuth2 authentication. [Example](https://github.com/kataras/iris/tree/master/_examples/authentication/oauth2) |
