Learning Hono as a Backend Framework

Today I learned how to use Hono as a backend framework. Previously, I was more familiar with using Express when working on backend projects, but today I tried Hono and found that it feels simpler and lighter than I expected.

I had actually heard about Hono for quite some time, but I never had the chance to try it before. After trying it today, I feel that the framework is very comfortable to use and does not take long to get used to.

After understanding the basics, everything started to feel familiar, from routing, middleware, to validation. One thing I like about Hono is its minimal structure and the TypeScript support, which feels comfortable to use without requiring additional configuration like what I usually have to set up when using Express.
