To get started with GoFr, add the following import to your code and use Go’s module support to automatically fetch dependencies:
import "gofr.dev/pkg/gofr"Alternatively, use the command:
go get -u gofr.dev/pkg/gofrHere's a simple example to get a GoFr application up and running:
package main
import "gofr.dev/pkg/gofr"
func main() {
app := gofr.New()
app.GET("/greet", func(ctx *gofr.Context) (any, error) {
return "Hello World!", nil
})
app.Run() // listens and serves on localhost:8000
}
