When creating this template project, I saw that I had to set up the server manually and I used gofiber as it has express-like functionalities, and as a MERN stack developer, I found it very easy to use. Once I thought to make a server-project generator in Express as well, but they already have one, it is called express-generator. Then I thought there might be the same thing for Fiber as well. But when I searched in GitHub with the topic:go-backend-template, I only found pre-made templates that you can clone and use for your projects. That's when I decided to give it a shot.

Damn I hate it when you write a whole project and someone comes along and says "this already exists" and you realise how much time you wasted (yeah even if some of it counts towards learning I'd still rather not needlessly repeat other people's work).
Anyway, pprof has a fantastic interactive Flamegraph viewer that lets you narrow down to specific functions. It's really very good, I would use that.
https://github.com/google/pprof
Run `pprof -http=:` on a profile and you get a web interface with the Flamegraph, call graph, line based profiling etc.
It's demonstrated in this video.

They only show a very simple example and no zooming, but it works very well with huge flamegraphs.
