gin-gonic/gin

Healthy

Healthy across all four use cases

HealthyDependency

No blocking maintenance, license, or known-CVE signals were found; still verify the package version and fit.

HealthyFork & modify

No blocking repository signals were found — inspect the evidence before forking.

HealthyLearn from

Documented and popular — useful reference codebase to read through.

HealthyDeploy as-is

No blocking repository-level signals were found; deployment review is still required.

MixedDeploy as-is

Scorecard "Token-Permissions" is 0/10; 7 cyclic import chains — pervasive coupling

  • AGPL-3.0 is copyleft — check downstream compatibility
  • Last commit today
  • 34+ active contributors
  • Distributed ownership (top contributor 41% of recent commits)
  • AGPL-3.0 licensed
  • CI configured
  • Tests present

What would improve this?

  • Use as dependency Concerns to Mixed if: relicense under MIT/Apache-2.0 (rare for established libs)
  • Deploy as-is Mixed to Healthy if: bring "Token-Permissions" to ≥3/10 (see scorecard report)
