Martini vs Yesod: What are the differences?
Developers describe Martini as "Classy web framework for Go". Martini is a powerful package for quickly writing modular web applications/services in Golang. On the other hand, Yesod is detailed as "A RESTful Haskell web framework built on WAI". Yesod believes in the philosophy of making the compiler your ally, not your enemy. We use the type system to enforce as much as possible, from generating proper links, to avoiding XSS attacks, to dealing with character encoding issues. In general, if your code compiles, it works. And instead of declaring types everywhere you let the compiler figure them out for you with type inference.
Martini and Yesod can be primarily classified as "Frameworks (Full Stack)" tools.
"Go" is the top reason why over 5 developers like Martini, while over 5 developers mention "Haskell" as the leading cause for choosing Yesod.
Martini and Yesod are both open source tools. Martini with 10.6K GitHub stars and 1.09K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than Yesod with 2.11K GitHub stars and 329 GitHub forks.
