**A polished, production-ready backend framework in Dart with NNBD support.**
-----
## About
Angel3 is a fork of archived Angel framework to support Dart SDK 2.12.x or later. 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](<https://angel3-framework.web.app/>) to learn more.
The available features in Angel3 includes:
* Server-Side Rendering (Markdown, Mustache, Jinja, JAEL)
* OAuth2 Authentication
* WebSocket
* HTTP/2
* HTTP Streaming
* GraphQL
* ORM for PostgreSQL
* ORM for MySQL
* MongoDB
* Cache
See all the available [`packages`](https://angel3-docs.dukefirehawk.com/packages) for more information.
## Important Notes
The core Angel Framework migration to Angel3 Framework has completed and published under `angel3_` prefix on pub.dev. The migrated packages have passed all the test cases.

## Performance Benchmark
The performance benchmark can be found at
[TechEmpower Framework Benchmarks Round 21](https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r21&test=composite)
The test cases are build using standard `Angel3 ORM` template. The result are used for fine-tuning Angel3 framework. The following test cases will be added in the upcoming update to the benchmark.
1. Cached queries
2. Angel3 with MongoDB
