Go codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.

Demo    RealWorld

This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged fullstack application built with Go including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.

We've gone to great lengths to adhere to the Go community styleguides & best practices.
