Fastro

Fast and simple web application framework for deno.

With near-native perfomance, you can manage your routing, middlewares, and dependencies cleanly. You can also take advantage of existing the standard deno objects and methods: Request, Response, Headers, and Cookie.

Examples

Getting started

import application from "https://deno.land/x/fastro@v0.50.0/server/mod.ts";

const app = application();

app.get("/", () => new Response("Hello world"));

console.log("Listening on: http://localhost:8000");

await app.serve();
deno run -A https://deno.land/x/fastro@v0.50.0/examples/main.ts

Custom port

import application from "https://deno.land/x/fastro@v0.50.0/server/mod.ts";

const app = application();

app.get("/", () => new Response("Hello world!"));

await app.serve({ port: 3000 });
deno run -A https://deno.land/x/fastro@v0.50.0/examples/custom_port.ts

const headers = new Headers();
headers.set("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=UTF-8");

app.get("/", () => {
  const html = <string> render(
    "<h4>The answer to everything is <%= it.answer %></h4>",
    {
      answer: 42,
    },
  );

  return new Response(html, { headers });
});
