Why are you creating this?

When building an app, I baked a lot of this logic into my app. It's better to make it a generic module so other people could use it and set some standard on how to build more complex Koa apps.

Will routing will be supported?

Nope. Routing is too opinionated, and different apps have different use-cases.

Will template rendering be supported?

Perhaps. There are currently two options that I'm looking at:

• co-views
• transformers

The main issue for me right now is maintenance. consolidate looks like it needs some love, and I don't think anyone uses transformers. I'd also prefer if anything we use is within an organization so they have multiple maintainers.

Will database-backed session stored be supported?

Nope. My personal opinion is that database-backed session stores should not be used as the .session object, but as an arbitrary object backed by a key the developer chooses, perhaps .session.sid. With Koa, it's easier as well as better to do atomic updates.

For example, if you use MongoDB, you might want to do something like: https://github.com/aheckmann/koa-mongodb-session/issues/5.

Will other HTTP/2 features be supported?

A lot of these features belong at the http.createServer() state of deploying your app, which Koala does not handle. However, if they are node req and res APIs, then we'll include some way of making it convenient.
