Anyone know how this compares to iris? (iris is faster than gin and has a truckload of examples, not sure why it's less popular).

In Iris framework author exposed for license violationsI don't see this framework going anywhere. The repo owner is the sole contributor [0], and is singularly pre-occupied with benchmarks and GitHub stars. The owner's entitlement about copy-pasted code, use of the royal "we", quickness to close issues without discussion, and pattern of editing and deleting issue comments are also discouraging.
