gnet | 🚀 gnet is a high-performance | TCP library

gnet is a Go library typically used in Networking, TCP applications. gnet has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has medium support. You can download it from GitHub.

gnet is an event-driven networking framework that is fast and lightweight. It makes direct epoll and kqueue syscalls rather than using the standard Go net package and works in a similar manner as netty and libuv, which makes gnet achieve a much higher performance than Go net. gnet is not designed to displace the standard Go net package, but to create a networking client/server framework for Go that performs on par with Redis and Haproxy for networking packets handling. gnet sells itself as a high-performance, lightweight, non-blocking, event-driven networking framework written in pure Go which works on transport layer with TCP/UDP protocols and Unix Domain Socket , so it allows developers to implement their own protocols(HTTP, RPC, WebSocket, Redis, etc.) of application layer upon gnet for building diversified network applications, for instance, you get an HTTP Server or Web Framework if you implement HTTP protocol upon gnet while you have a Redis Server done with the implementation of Redis protocol upon gnet and so on.
