Web application written in go, from the fantastic book Let's Go, by Alex Edwards.

Development

I use air to live reload the app:

go install github.com/air-verse/air@latest

To run air from the CLI, add the $GOPATH/bin to the $PATH. On zsh, edit the file~/.zshrc and tweak the PATH variable like so:

export PATH=$HOME/go/bin:$PATH

Run air to start the app:

air

💡 The app itself runs on port 8080, but air proxy it to http://localhost:8008 allowing to reload the browser after a new build.
