Feathers: Detailed Overview & Metrics
@feathersjs/feathers is a minimalist and flexible Node.js framework for building real-time applications. It provides a simple yet powerful API for creating RESTful services and WebSocket-based real-time applications. Feathers is designed to be agnostic to the underlying transport layer, allowing developers to seamlessly switch between HTTP and WebSocket protocols.
Compared to other Node.js frameworks like Express or Koa, Feathers offers built-in support for real-time functionality and data synchronization. It also provides a modular architecture with a plugin system, making it easy to extend and customize functionality. Feathers is actively maintained and recommended for building scalable and efficient real-time applications.
