finagle/finch

Finch is a Scala web framework that provides a type-safe, functional approach to building HTTP services. It offers a composable endpoint DSL for handling HTTP requests and responses, with built-in support for JSON serialization via Circe and Argonaut, as well as streaming capabilities through fs2 and Iteratee. The system also includes utilities for generic derivation of endpoints from case classes, content negotiation, and refined type validation.

This period focused on modernizing the framework's core abstractions by introducing new type classes for HTTP content negotiation, decoding, and error handling. Significant features were added for JSON processing, specifically supporting Argonaut and Circe with advanced capabilities like accumulating decoders and stream support. The release also included comprehensive testing infrastructure and project standardization.

This period focused on expanding the framework's capabilities by introducing generic derivation for endpoints and adding new types for extracting request data such as headers, cookies, and form parameters. It also added comprehensive test coverage for these features and the existing Circe integration, while establishing a benchmarking suite to measure performance improvements.
