Sure! Here’s a shorter version of the steps to create your own Go module:

---

📦 Creating Your Own Go Module

Create a package

./forge-module.sh

---

🌍 Environment Variables

If a .env file exists, it will be loaded automatically.

Example .env:

PORT=8080
APP_ENV=production

---

📡 API Endpoints

Method	Endpoint	Description
GET	/	Returns "Hello, Go App!"
