# gin-gonic/gin > Gin is a high-performance HTTP web framework for Go with a Martini-like API and a zero-allocation router, designed for REST APIs, web apps, and microservices. - Magnitude: 2.0 out of 10 — Steady - Stars: 89,465 total · +3 stars measured 2026-11-01, 00:07–10:24 UTC, ≈ 8 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Backend & databases · Language: Go · License: MIT · Created: 2014-06-16 · Last push: 2026-10-10 - GitHub: https://github.com/gin-gonic/gin · Homepage: https://gin-gonic.com/ · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/gin-gonic/gin ## Useful for - Build a REST API in Go with route grouping and middleware - Spin up a microservice handling many concurrent requests - Add middleware for logging, CORS, or panic recovery ## Why it’s here - Star-counter measurements on 2026-11-01 (UTC), 00:07–10:24: 89462 → 89465 stars (+3). This is the change over that interval. - Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +8 stars, using observed gains and the previous day. - About 24 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 8,903 - Issues and pull requests: 4,809 - Watchers: 1,361 - Average over the last week: 9 per day - Usual pace: 11 per day - Stars in the last hour (measured): -1 - Latest release: v1.12.0 (2026-02-28) ## Stars per day, last 30 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-04 … 2026-11-02: 7, 4, 8, 8, 6, 24, 9, 14, 19, 16, 13, 15, 8, 9, 7, 18, 11, 16, 14, 9, 10, 5, 13, 11, 6, 7, 9, 10, 2, None ## Magnitude by day, last 14 days 10-19 2.0, 10-20 2.3, 10-21 2.0, 10-22 2.2, 10-23 1.9, 10-24 1.6, 10-25 1.7, 10-26 1.8, 10-27 2.3, 10-28 2.2, 10-29 1.9, 10-30 1.8, 10-31 1.8, 11-01 2.1 --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
