Sirv Static File Server Middleware

library 3.0.2 ·javascript
verified May 27, 2026

Sirv is an optimized and lightweight middleware designed for serving static assets in Node.js applications, compatible with frameworks like Polka, Express, and native HTTP/S servers. The current stable version is 3.0.2. Its primary differentiator is a significant performance advantage over alternatives like `serve-static` because it pre-scans and caches file system information upfront (when not in 'dev' mode), avoiding costly per-request file system checks. This makes it very efficient for production deployments. Releases are active, with recent patches and a major version upgrade to v3.0.0 that introduced native ESM support and a higher Node.js baseline. It ships with TypeScript types, enhancing developer experience.
