go-web-starter
This is a starter project for building web applications with Go, HTML, Typescript and SCSS.
The setup uses:
- Webpack (to process html, typescript and scss files and to automatically refresh the browser when any file changes)
- Gin (to live-reload the go web app)
During development, changing any of the following will refresh your app in the browser:
- HTML templates
- Typescript scripts
- SCSS styles
- Go source code (the refresh with this might be a bit slower compared to the other file types. This is because the go app is built and run after every change)
The Go app resides in src/app, the Go templates in templates, the typescript scripts in static/scripts and the styles in static/styles
The setup assumes that the root directory of this project is in the GOPATH.
The setup requires the following installed on the system:
- Node.js (version 8 min), NPM and optionally, Yarn
- Gin (the live-reload utility, not the framework)
Intialize the project by executing:
yarn (or `npm install`, if you don't have Yarn installed)
To start developing,
yarn dev (or `npm run dev`, if you don't have Yarn installed)
You can access your app at http://localhost:3000
To build the project,
yarn build (or `npm run build`, if you don't have Yarn installed)
