Chawan, a lightweight and customizable web framework, has released version 0.2.0 with new features such as middleware support, improved routing, and bug fixes, aiming to provide developers with a flexible and efficient tool for building web applications.
Chawan started out as a w3m clone, and the UI still resembles it. However, the architecture has turned out quite different, with pages loaded in separate processes, and protocol/file type handling separated out into external binaries. An interesting result is that you can even register decoders for custom inline image formats, although practical use cases of this are rather minimal.
