Go
17 production projects and 2 rule sets built with Go.
AGENTS.md Rules & Agent Skills
Go + Echo + SQLite (Embedded, Self-Hosted Tools)
Architecture guidelines for single-binary Go services using the Echo framework, embedded SQLite, and minimal-JS server-rendered UI.
Go + PostgreSQL (pgx & sqlc) + React
High-throughput systems architecture rules for Go (Golang), pgxpool connection management, sqlc type-safe query generation, and React web dashboards.
Production Projects
Gotify
Self-hosted real-time push notification service (Pushover / Pusher alternative). Built in Go with Gin and WebSockets for low-latency message streaming from CI/CD webhooks, server scripts, and IoT alerts directly to desktop/mobile devices.
Grafana
Universal observability platform; Go backend queries disparate time-series databases and streams real-time telemetry to customizable React panels.
Mattermost
High-security enterprise messaging; Go backend with concurrent WebSocket routing and React desktop/web clients.
Gitea
Frictionless GitHub alternative; written in Go to run on minimal hardware (even a Raspberry Pi) while providing Git repository management, issue tracking, and Docker-based CI/CD pipelines.
MinIO
Standard for private cloud object storage; engineered in Go with SIMD assembly acceleration to deliver multi-gigabyte/sec read/write throughput compatible with the Amazon S3 API.
Authelia
Zero-trust authentication and authorization server acting as a companion to reverse proxies (Traefik, Nginx, Caddy). Enforces multi-factor authentication (WebAuthn, TOTP, Push) and granular access policies before traffic ever reaches downstream services.
SeaweedFS
Highly scalable distributed file system optimized for billions of small and large files (Haystack + Ficus design). Separates directory metadata from volume servers with Raft consensus, eliminating single-point metadata bottlenecks and achieving O(1) disk lookups.
Fasten Health
Self-hosted personal health record aggregator connecting thousands of medical institutions via standard SMART-on-FHIR protocols. Built in Go for secure single-binary local-first deployment with embedded encrypted SQLite storage and zero third-party telemetry.
Apache Answer
Self-hosted developer community and technical Q&A platform (Stack Overflow / Dev Community alternative). Built with Go Gin for high concurrency and low memory usage, GORM for multi-database persistence (Postgres/MySQL/SQLite), and React TypeScript for rich Markdown editing.
Temporal
Durable execution platform allowing developers to write resilient, long-running distributed workflows in code without worrying about network partitions, crashes, or server restarts. Backed by Go gRPC cluster nodes and persistent event-history replay logs in PostgreSQL/Cassandra.
Cosmo (WunderGraph)
Open-source GraphQL federation gateway and router written in Go. Compiles subgraphs into unified declarative execution plans with sub-millisecond routing overhead, zero-allocation request pipelines, OTEL distributed tracing, and ClickHouse-backed analytics.
Gatus
Lightweight developer status page; compiled into a single binary where Go performs zero-allocation concurrent health checks and serves an embedded Vue interface.
Authentik
Enterprise open source IAM; Django core manages permission trees while lightweight Go outposts terminate TLS and validate tokens at the edge.
Lago
Open-source usage-based billing infrastructure; high-throughput Go event ingester paired with Ruby on Rails subscription ledger.
Ollama
Ultra-lightweight local LLM runtime; Go REST daemon manages model distribution while C++/llama.cpp provides optimized GPU compute.
PocketBase
Ultra-compact single binary: zero microservice maintenance overhead, handles 10,000+ RPS on a $5/mo VPS.
Bluesky App
Single codebase for two app stores; protocol server scales as an independent Go service.
