    send_text(res, 200, "Hello, World!");
}

Build:

mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && cmake --build .

Here are 'Hello World' benchmark results for several frameworks compared to Ecewo. See the source code of the benchmark test.

Lower is better.

Refer to the docs for usage.

• ecewo-postgres for async PostgreSQL integration.
• ecewo-cookie for cookie management.
• ecewo-session for session management.
• ecewo-fs for file operations.
• ecewo-static for static file serving.
• ecewo-cors for CORS implementation.
• ecewo-helmet for automaticaly setting safety headers.

Here is an example blog app built with Ecewo and PostgreSQL.
