Why?

Otter was created to provide these features:

• Preference of Generics over Reflection
• Abstract the I/O framework from the web framework
• Regex routing
• Application encrypted sessions
• Async I/O
• HTTP 2

Otter began embedded within a web application in late 2014. Back then there were not many options for those features. It was extracted and open sourced in 2017.
