    From the README

    Fiber is an Express inspired web framework built on top of Fasthttp, the fastest HTTP engine for Go. Designed to ease things up for fast development with zero memory allocation and performance in mind.

    Fiber v3 is currently in beta and under active development. While it offers exciting new features, please note that it may not be stable for production use. We recommend sticking to the latest stable release (v2.x) for mission-critical applications. If you choose to use v3, be prepared for potential bugs and breaking changes. Always check the official documentation and release notes for updates and proceed with caution. Happy coding! 🚀

    Fiber requires Go version 1.24 or higher to run. If you need to install or upgrade Go, visit the official Go download page. To start setting up your project, create a new directory for your project and navigate into it. Then, initialize your project with Go modules by executing the following command in your terminal:

    To learn more about Go modules and how they work, you can check out the Using Go Modules blog post.

    After setting up your project, you can install Fiber with the go get command:

    This command fetches the Fiber package and adds it to your project's dependencies, allowing you to start building your web applications with Fiber.
