    What is CodeIgniter?

    CodeIgniter is a proven, agile & open PHP web application framework with a small footprint. It is powering the next generation of web apps.

    What is Revel?

    Revel makes it easy to build web applications using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern by relying on conventions that require a certain structure in your application. In return, it is very light on configuration and enables an extremely fast development cycle.

    What is Tornado?

    By using non-blocking network I/O, Tornado can scale to tens of thousands of open connections, making it ideal for long polling, WebSockets, and other applications that require a long-lived connection to each user.
