Deprecated Node.js framework for building applications and REST APIs, now succeeded by a Golang port.
We.js is a deprecated Node.js framework for building web applications and REST APIs with built-in admin interfaces and real-time capabilities. It provided a modular architecture with plugin support to extend functionality and automate common development tasks. The framework has been succeeded by a direct port to the Go programming language called @go-catupiri.
Node.js developers building full-stack applications who need rapid development with built-in admin panels and REST API generation capabilities.
Developers chose We.js for its comprehensive feature set including automated REST APIs, admin interfaces, and real-time capabilities out of the box, reducing the need to integrate multiple separate libraries.
[Deprecated] See @go-catupiri as a direct golang port

We.js used a plugin-based architecture that allowed developers to extend functionality through reusable modules, reducing boilerplate code as highlighted in its key features.
It provided automated REST API generation from data models with built-in CRUD operations, accelerating backend development for applications and APIs.
The framework included a built-in administration interface for managing content and settings, saving significant development time on admin interfaces.
With WebSocket support, We.js enabled real-time features like live updates, making it suitable for interactive applications without additional setup.
The project has been officially deprecated in favor of a Go port, meaning no updates, bug fixes, or security patches for the Node.js version, as stated in the README.
Due to deprecation, the plugin ecosystem and community support have shrunk, making it hard to find resources, plugins, or troubleshooting help.
Its modular architecture and convention-over-configuration approach required significant time to master, especially for developers new to such frameworks.
