GitHub describes it as High performance, minimalist Go web framework. The repository metadata lists Go as its primary language. The metadata lists the MIT license. The README describes the project this way: Echo is built on Go's standard net/http , and interoperates with it via echo.WrapHandler / echo.WrapMiddleware , adding the parts the standard library leaves to you: a fast radix-tree router, request binding (with a pluggable validator), a deep middleware ecosystem, and centralized error handling. Actively maintained, with v5 as the current release line (see badges above for the latest version and most recent commit).

The README section "Feature Overview" states: - Optimized HTTP router which smartly prioritize routes - Build robust and scalable RESTful APIs - Group APIs - Extensible middleware framework - Define middleware at root, group or route level - Data binding for JSON, XML and form payload - Handy functions to send variety of HTTP responses - Centralized HTTP error handling - Template rendering with any template engine - Define your format for the logger - Highly customizable - Automatic TLS via Let’s Encrypt - HTTP/2 support

The README section "Supported Echo versions" states: - Latest major version of Echo is v5 as of 2026-01-18. - See API CHANGES V5.md for public API changes between v4 and v5 , notes on upgrading. - Echo v4 is supported with security updates and bug fixes until 2026-12-31

The README section "Installation" states: Latest version of Echo supports last four Go major releases and might work with older versions.
