Gin

Gin is a free, open-source backend framework for Go projects. It supports server-side rendering and is intended for self-hosted deployment, making language, rendering mode and hosting approach central considerations for teams evaluating it. Gin does not include an ORM or built-in authentication, so neither capability is part of its listed framework offering. Its pricing model is free, and it has a free plan. The available profile identifies Gin as backend software, lists Go as its primary language, and specifies SSR as a rendering mode. It is designed for projects that can use Go and manage deployment themselves. Teams that need an included ORM or authentication should account for those missing built-in capabilities when considering the framework. Gin's open-source license and free plan mean there is no listed paid tier to weigh. The official website is gin-gonic.com/en/.

Gin offers a free, open-source option for self-hosted Go backend projects with SSR support. Its lack of an included ORM and built-in authentication matters for projects that require those capabilities.

Gin suits developers building Go backend software who want SSR support and plan to self-host. Projects needing an included ORM or built-in authentication may not match its listed capabilities.
