Course Headline: 🏗️ Build a Reusable Go Module and Command Line Application for Efficient Web Development 🚀

Introduction: Laravel has set the bar high in the PHP world with its elegant, expressive syntax and powerful features that make building web applications a breeze. Now, let's harness the speed, performance, and reliability of Go (Golang) to craft a similar developer experience! In this course, we'll learn how to implement Laravel-like functionality within Go, creating a robust, fast, and secure web application framework that you can use across your projects.

Course Highlights:

• Object Relation Mapper (ORM): Learn how to create a database-agnostic ORM similar to Laravel's Eloquent, with the same powerful features.

• Database Migration System: Set up a system to migrate databases efficiently and handle version control of your data structures.

• User Authentication System: Implement a comprehensive authentication system that supports password reset functionality, session-based, and token-based authentication methods.

  • Password Reset System
  • Session-Based Authentication
  • Token-Based Authentication (for APIs and modern frontends)

• Templating System: Utilize both Go templates and Jet templates to handle your application's presentation layer with ease.

• Caching System: Integrate a caching system that supports popular choices like Redis and Badger for optimized data retrieval and performance boost.

• Session Management: Manage sessions through cookies, databases (MySQL and Postgres), or Redis.

• Response Types: Simplify the handling of different content types such as HTML, XML, JSON, and file downloads.

• Form Validation: Ensure your application handles form data securely and correctly with robust validation.

• JSON Validation: Keep your application's data integrity in check with built-in JSON validation.

• Mailing System: Send emails using SMTP servers or leverage third-party APIs like MailGun, SparkPost, or SendGrid.

• Command Line Tool: Generate scaffolding for new projects with ease via a command line application (celeritas new <myproject>).

Prerequisites:

• A basic understanding of Go programming language.
• Familiarity with SQL databases.
• Any personal computer running Windows, Mac, or Linux.
• An internet connection to download resources and documentation.
• Docker for managing project dependencies and environments.
• Visual Studio Code (or your preferred IDE) to write and test your Go code.
