THE GO SERVICE BLUEPRINT

A head start for
your next Go service.

Application code, development workflows, and project context. A considered starting point you can make your own.

The code and the thinking behind it.

A CONNECTED FOUNDATION

Build it. Understand it. Operate it.

Keep the pieces that help. Adapt the rest to your application.

01 / DEVELOP

Start with the groundwork.

HTTP and gRPC interfaces, persistence, background workers, and a repeatable development workflow.

Explore the workflows 02 / DOCUMENT

Keep the context close.

Working conventions, requirements, and decisions live beside the code, ready for the next person or AI agent.

Read the documentation model 03 / OPERATE

Plan beyond the build.

Use the release workflow and deployment starting points to establish your application's operating process.

Understand the defaults

FROM STARTING POINT TO YOUR PROJECT

Make it yours.
Keep learning as you go.
