Mention koa-router & friends

[odinho]

Yes, that would be most useful. The wiki list has way too many items and no way to meaningfully add one, I'd like to just have a set of recommended (conservative) middleware without having to investigate them all individually.

Having gone through some of the projects on the wiki list, some are abandoned, some feel abandoned, some personal projects, some are unclear on the Koa 2 support etc. Koa 2 is a breath of fresh air with regards to the basic API, but it'd be nice with a pointer to some 'this goes great with' batteries.

There's https://github.com/koajs/koa/wiki

Yeah, there's no mention of a router, but it does have a section with links that includes the wiki:

and the main app.use section on the website also has a link to the middleware part of the wiki:

See, my problem was not that it is not documented, but that is a quite necessary thing to do anything usable and it was pretty hard to find. I like the modularity approach, but it would help a lot to have a few suggestions of important middlewares in a prominent place :)

@andywer You are right brother I also face the same thing that there is nothing mention in there docs for the routing. That's why I had updated their Koa vs Express doc file and mentioned that there is third party library support available for handling routing. Check this doc in the last I had added a section "Koa routing (third party libraries support)".

my preferred solution would be to create a wiki of "recommended" middleware to get your app running, then linking to that in the official docs. the official docs, however, should remain minimal

[jonathanong]

a link here would be great on the docs https://github.com/koajs/koa/wiki#routing-and-mounting

if there are any middleware that are no longer maintained, please open an issue in that repo. if they don't answer, feel free to remove it from the wiki!
