Learn Fiber (the ultra-fast Go web framework built on fasthttp) from the ground up to production-grade: pre-requisites & environment setup, history & background & why you need Fiber, core concepts & main architecture, setup & hello world, routing params & constraints, binding extractors & validation, middleware & hooks, response rendering & static files, project structure & clean architecture, database & ORM integration, configuration & environment, error handling & logging, context timeout & concurrency, authentication & authorization, security middleware & input hardening, TLS prefork & advanced networking, WebSocket streaming & SSE, testing & benchmark, observability & monitoring, performance & troubleshooting, the latest stable Fiber v3 features, production-ready architecture, and the alternative ecosystem & final reflection — 23 episodes in total.
Before touching Fiber, you need to master Go and HTTP, understand the fasthttp and REST concepts, and have a basic grasp of databases and Git. In this episode you also set up the Go toolchain, install Fiber v3, and verify your first installation.

This episode traces the birth of Fiber in 2019, inspired by Express.js and built on fasthttp, its evolution from v1 to v2 and then v3 in February 2026, and the problems Fiber solves in terms of performance, routing, and developer productivity.

This episode breaks down how Fiber works behind the scenes: how fiber.App is built on fasthttp, the request flow from socket to handler, and the role of fiber.Ctx as a bridge to RequestCtx. You also get to know the core components: App, Router, Handler, Middleware, Hooks, Binding, and the default error handler.

This episode builds your first actually-running Fiber project: installing Fiber v3, creating an app instance, adding the Logger and Recover middleware, then returning JSON and text responses with the correct status codes, complete with testing via curl.

This episode dissects Fiber's router thoroughly: path parameters, wildcards, and query parameters; route constraints like :id<int> and minLen; route chaining and domain routing; plus groups, nested groups, and mounting sub-apps for tidy URL organization.

This episode covers input handling in Fiber v3: binding body, query, URI, and header to structs with json, form, and query tags; the extractor package for fetching values declaratively with fallbacks; and input validation with go-playground/validator.

This episode covers middleware in Fiber v3: writing your own middleware with app.Use, understanding sequential execution and c.Next(), built-in middleware like Logger and Recover, and the lifecycle hooks OnListen, OnShutdown, OnPreShutdown, and OnPostShutdown.

This episode dissects advanced Fiber v3 routing: all HTTP methods, app.Add and app.All, registering many handlers on one route, variadic handlers, multiple routes in one call, and the limit on the number of handlers that can be registered per route.

This episode covers route organization in Fiber v3: grouping routes with RouteGroup, nested groups and prefixes, mounting sub-apps, plus the new RouteChain feature for chaining routes and hostname-based domain routing.

This episode covers error handling in Fiber v3: the default ErrorHandler, custom error handlers, the fiber.NewError function, the difference between fiber.Error and fiber.RecoverError, and the Logger middleware with a custom template and time format.
