Golang Template Web Application

A simple web application built with Golang and PostgreSQL. The application is a simple CRUD application that allows users to create, read, update, and delete users from a PostgreSQL database. A simple frontend is also included in the project to demonstrate the functionality of the application.

Project Guide

This is a guide for the Golang template CRUD web application project. You will find different guidelines to help you set up the project, and the database, and how to use Git and GitHub. You can find the wiki here.

What's needed to run the server

• Golang
• Make
• PostgreSQL
• .env file

In the root directory, create a new file named .env.
Copy the content of .env.example into your .env file.

Replace the placeholders for the database connection with your own values (read the PostgreSQL setup guide for more information).

How to run the server

1. Run the following commands on your terminal to clone the repository and run the server:

git clone https://github.com/chrisdedman/Golang-Web-App.git
cd Golang-Web-App # Change directory to the project folder
make run          # Run the server using Makefile script (required Make)

2. Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 (or any other port you specified in the .env file)
3. You should see the front page template of the web app (see the demo section below)
