go-htmx-template

This is a skeleton app using Go/Echo/Templ/sqlx in the backend and HTMX/AlpineJS/Tailwind/Vite in the frontend.

Getting Started

• Copy the project to your local machine.
• Run go mod tidy to download the dependencies.
• In the client dir run pnpm install to download the client dependencies.
• Run pnpm run build to build the client bundle.
• Run go run cmd/server/main.go to start the server.
• The gomon client is included so you can run gomon to start the server and have it automatically restart when you make changes.

Features

• There is a separate client folder containing all of the client dependencies. The client bundle is built using Vite and copied to the static/dist folder along with any other dependencies (e.g. fonts). The contents of this folder are server statically by the Go server using the /assets path. To build the client run pnpm run build in the client folder. To watch for changes run pnpm run build:watch.
• Config object loaded from env vars.
• A simple Sqlite3/sqlx datastore (nothing is implemented beyond opening/closing the connection)
• The home page is rendered at startup and served from memory thereafter. There is an HTMX tag in the navbar which gets the auth buttons (logout or login/signup) from a separate endpoint.
