GoTTH Stack

GoTTH is designed to quickly spin up a Full-Stack Golang Web Application with database support.

About the Stack

Includes following Languages and Technologies:

1. Golang with ServeMux.
2. TailwindCSS Standalone Executable.
3. Turso LibSQL (SQLite for Production).
4. HTMX with Templ as Templating Engine.

Run the project

air

Installation Guide

Air for Live Reload

go install github.com/cosmtrek/air@latest

Templ

go install github.com/a-h/templ/cmd/templ@latest

You can add templ to your local bashrc or zshrc profile config to avoid absolute path while using templ command.

TailwindCSS

1. Install the executable binary for your platform from the latest release from GitHub in the root of project.

2. Make sure to give it executable permissions:

chmod +x ./tailwindcss

Turso

go get github.com/tursodatabase/libsql-client-go/libsql

1. Then Install the Turso CLI, create your database, generate the AuthToken & DB_URL and add them in the .env file.
2. You can refer this awesome Turso Quickstart Go Docs if you get stuck anywhere.

.env

PORT=8080
DB_URL=libsql://yourDBName-tursoUserName.turso.io?authToken=yourAuthToken
