@feathersjs/feathers is a minimalist and flexible Node.js framework for building real-time applications. It provides a simple and powerful API for creating RESTful services and WebSocket-based real-time applications. Feathers is designed to be agnostic to the underlying database and transport layer, allowing developers to easily switch between different technologies. It also offers a plugin system for adding additional functionality and a robust authentication mechanism.
Compared to other Node.js frameworks like Express or Koa, Feathers is more focused on real-time applications and provides a streamlined development experience. It is actively maintained with regular updates and a growing community of users and contributors.
