Description
When installing echo-contrib, Go pulls in all dependencies used across this repository, even though many of them may not be used in a given project.
This makes dependency management heavier than necessary for users who only need a specific package. It would be helpful if each package under echo-contrib had its own go.mod file and could be installed independently, so only the required dependencies are fetched.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the repository's current dependency declarations and the package directories under echo-contrib. Determine how each package can have its own go.mod while limiting fetched dependencies, and consider how independent installation should be verified. Done means each package installs independently without pulling unrelated repository dependencies.
