GoBB

GOBB

What?

GoBB is a BB forum written in Golang

Why?

This is just an exercise in Go, using dependency injection via Wire and Docker to run the service dependencies such as Postgres. I started my development career 12 years ago writing forums in PHP, Ruby and even Node so it only seems fitting to write one in Go.

How?

Start the app with make start. This runs the app in a Docker container and starts up all dependencies. The app will then be available at localhost:8000
