Philosophy
------------
The Iris philosophy is to provide robust tooling for HTTP, making it a great solution for single page applications, web sites, hybrids, or public HTTP APIs.
Iris does not force you to use any specific ORM or template engine. With support for the most used template engines, you can quickly craft the perfect application.
## Benchmarks
[This Benchmark suite](https://github.com/smallnest/go-web-framework-benchmark) aims to compare the whole HTTP request processing between Go web frameworks.
**New results just came out:**

Tests are located to the [iris-contrib/tests repository](https://github.com/iris-contrib/tests), community should write some code there!
I recommend writing your API tests using this new library, [httpexpect](https://github.com/gavv/httpexpect) which supports Iris and fasthttp now, after my request [here](https://github.com/gavv/httpexpect/issues/2).
