Go bindings for libcryptsetup (LUKS)
BTW there is also a project that tries to get LUKS working with pure Go library https://github.com/anatol/luks.go

Can you recommend open source projects with small codebase, but with high benefits for learning?
https://github.com/anatol/luks.go a golang library to unlock LUKS partitions. Look at it if you are interested in cryptography.

The Linux Process Journey — “dmcrypt_write”
Overall, “dm-crypt” is a device-mapper target (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.5-rc3/source/drivers/md/dm-crypt.c#L3689) supported from kernel version 2.6.4 (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v2.6.4/source/drivers/md/dm-crypt.c). It is responsible for transparent (aka real-time/on-the-fly encryption) block device encryption while using the kernel crypto API (https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/wikis/DMCrypt) .

Can I only partially clone a LUKS encrypted drive?
References: - Frequently Asked Questions Cryptsetup/LUKS - Question 2.15: "neither dm-crypt nor LUKS1 stores partition size and LUKS2 uses a generic "whole device" size as default." - Stackexchange: What does cryptsetup resize do if LUKS doesn't store partition size?

Is it possible to create a directory that is automatically encrypted at rest?
LUKS is probably what you want
