Angel3 Framework
A polished, production-ready backend framework in Dart.
About
Angel3 started life as a fork of the archived Angel framework
to support null-safety in Dart SDK 2.12.x and beyond. It is a full-stack Web framework in Dart that aims to streamline development by providing many common features out-of-the-box in a consistent manner. One of the main goal is to enable developers to build both frontend and backend in the same language, Dart. Angel3 framework is designed as a collection of plugins that enable developers to pick and choose the parts needed for their projects. A series of starter templates are also provided for quick start and trial run with Angel3 framework. Visit our website for more details.
The available features in Angel3 includes:
- Basic and OAuth2 Authentication
- ORM for PostgreSQL and MySQL
- MongoDB
- GraphQL
- Proxy and Cache
- Static File Handling
- Server Side Rendering
- Websocket
See all the available packages
for more information.
