  • Fiber

    ⚡️ Express inspired web framework written in Go

  • It is built on top of Fasthttp engine, here are some benchmarks. It also has quite a low memory allocation overhead. For example while writing this article it only took around only ~16mb of memory, which was amazing!

  • mux

    Discontinued A powerful HTTP router and URL matcher for building Go web servers with 🦍

  • Fiber is a web framework for Go similar to Mux. But it's heavily inspired by Express and that makes it perfect to work with for node developers.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • tutorials

    This repository contains all the code snippets from articles and videos (by karanpratapsingh)

  • The code from the article is available in this repository

  • Nodemon.io

    Monitor for any changes in your node.js application and automatically restart the server - perfect for development

  • Air helps with live reload for Go apps, which is great for development. It is quite similar to nodemon, alternatively, you can simply use go run command to run your program.

  • insomnia

    The open-source, cross-platform API client for GraphQL, REST, WebSockets, SSE and gRPC. With Cloud, Local and Git storage.

  • I'm using Insomnia to test out the mock endpoints
