KCD ? What is that
So what's KCD ?
KCD is not a framework, it's not a router. KCD is a helper that simplifies your life for building maintainable and comprehensive REST applications.
Its goal is to provide a way to write a beautiful handler without a boilerplate and translate it into a plain old HTTP handler.
This library is opinionated by default but customizable which means it uses some other libraries like Chi, Logrus... KCD is modular so each piece of the code that relies on a specific library can be changed.
Is it painful to write your API in go?
What's the problem when you are building an API in Golang? You know the classic:
Input marshaling from JSON
Input from query parameters
Input from path parameters
Input validation
Error handling
Error logging
Format response
All this kind of stuff is boring and when you come from an established language like Java, PHP, Ruby each of these languages has its own framework with a battle-tested solution to handle all of the cases above.
