Mizu development follows a principle of incremental improvement. Each release adds focused functionality while keeping the core simple and stable.

​
Current - Core Framework

The foundation is in place:
  • Routing with Go 1.22 ServeMux patterns
  • Context wrapper with request/response helpers
  • Middleware system compatible with net/http
  • Structured logging with slog
  • Graceful shutdown with configurable timeouts
  • Server-Sent Events (SSE) and streaming responses
  • Static file serving
  • Error handling with panic recovery

​
Planned

Future development will focus on ecosystem packages that integrate with the core: Templates and Rendering
  • HTML templates with layouts and partials
  • Integration with Go’s html/template
Testing Utilities
  • Test helpers for handlers and middleware
  • Request/response mocking
Documentation
  • More examples covering common patterns
  • Guides for deployment and production use

​
Philosophy

Mizu stays small by design. Features that require significant complexity will be separate packages rather than additions to the core. This keeps the framework predictable and easy to understand. If you need functionality beyond what Mizu provides, you can use any Go library that works with net/http. Mizu does not lock you into a specific ecosystem.
