#### Our project is 37 times smaller than [Javalin](https://javalin.io/), which bills itself as

>"A simple web framework for Java and Kotlin"
> 
>"Lightweight - Javalin is just a few thousand lines of code on top of Jetty, and its 
> performance is equivalent to raw Jetty code. Due to its size, it's very easy to 
> reason about the source code.

We'll see that, and raise you ***a web framework with zero dependencies***

Basis for Javalin's size:
-------------------------

_Note that this is a conservative measure - I'm not even counting the subdependencies, but
instead only one layer deep.  Also note that Minum contains code for automated testing and 
makes concientious decisions to provide the user-oriented functionality without requiring this
much technology - therefore, it is a valid apples-to-apples comparison_
