Reitit, the Ancient Art of Routing
summary
A new router called reitit delivers data-driven route tables, compile-time route compilation and middleware-as-data with spec-based validation and coercion, and it benchmarks at about 220 ns average path lookup (vs ~22,000 ns for some Clojure rivals and ~160 ns for a top Go router). The build uses router creation time compilation, async tooling like async-profiler and criterium, exposes route metadata for inspection, and the examples and demo run successfully, showing large practical speedups.
