Fast and low overhead web framework, for Node.js

/**
 * Most type annotations in this file are not strictly necessary but are

 * To run this example execute the following commands to install typescript,

 *
 * npm i -g typescript
 * tsc examples/typescript-server.ts --target es6 --module commonjs
 * node examples/typescript-server.js
