I started (but many many others contributed) to the Go implementation of WebRTC Pion WebRTC https://github.com/pion/webrtc
Along the way I worked on a Go implemenation of DTLS that gets used on its own a bit https://github.com/pion/dtls
In another life I wrote Therac https://github.com/sean-der/therac. A PHP debugger that was viewable from a browser. I was a remote at the time (2015) and it was a great tool to use with others.
I also wrote fail2web https://github.com/sean-der/fail2web a web frontend to fail2ban

+1 on shynet! I use it for my personal website and my blog, and it's been working great.
I got it up and running with Podman, so no need to install and run the Docker daemon. I also fixed SQLite support [1], so no need for an additional DB server.
I analyzed available open-source web analytics tools [2] and AFAIK there is simpler solution for web analytics that doesn't involve a third party.
