I'd just use cobra.

Project mention: Caddy – The Ultimate Server with Automatic HTTPS | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-02-16
Caddy is really great. In prod, but most surprisingly for all environments.
- There's a great tool, localias, which uses Caddy for a local dev server https://github.com/peterldowns/localias
- I use it locally for dev https://github.com/iloveitaly/python-starter-template/blob/m... which aligns tricky bits of a web app like HTTP redirect, cookies, and CORS to work consistently across dev and prod.
- Can be used on GHA for HTTPS as well https://github.com/iloveitaly/github-action-localias
