what's the verdict? ring or pedestal? 😉

pedestal

can pedestal do sync only too?

what do you mean?

requests are handled asynchronous (multiple requests per thread in an event loop) or one thread per request (synchronous) ?

I know its async, but wondering if it can do sync only too

your choice

it does either.

good

It also streams back SSE with resumable checkpoints.

thanks, that might come in handy

The ability to utilize Ring Middleware as Pedestal Interceptors

is that done much in practice? utilizing ring middleware?

All the time, sometimes even by pedestal core.

ok

And a lot of the time simple routes will be ring-style handlers (get called with a map, return a response map)

I sometimes get caught up debating if something is complex enough to warrant splitting into interceptors vs a ring-handler. It’s been an interesting forcing function for ensuring my code pipelines effectively
