SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates the time and inconsistency involved in scaffolding Go backend services by generating a runnable, convention-driven project structure with essential production capabilities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Go and Gin Scaffolding: Creates a layered backend with handlers, services, repositories, models, configuration, middleware, and utilities.
  • Production Foundations: Includes PostgreSQL or MySQL support, GORM, JWT authentication, bcrypt password hashing, validation, CORS, request logging, panic recovery, pagination, Docker files, and health checks.
  • Documentation and Verification: Produces an API contract and project guide while validating the generated project with dependency resolution, builds, static analysis, and a health-check request.
  • Use Case: Generate a high-concurrency order service with users, orders, and order items using a standardized Go and Gin architecture.

Quick Start

Ask the Go backend skill to generate a Gin project for a high-concurrency order service with users, orders, PostgreSQL, and JWT authentication.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a Go and Gin backend with layered architecture and JWT authentication?

Scaffolding a Go and Gin backend with layered architecture and JWT authentication generates a runnable project structure with handlers, services, repositories, and middleware. It includes GORM persistence, bcrypt password hashing, and PostgreSQL or MySQL support.

What is included in a production-ready Gin REST API generated scaffold?

A production-ready Gin REST API scaffold includes CORS, request logging, panic recovery, pagination, validation, and unified response envelopes. It also provides Docker files and health checks to ensure immediate deployability.

Can I generate a high-concurrency microservice using GORM and Gin?

Yes, generating a high-concurrency microservice using GORM and Gin creates an order system scaffold with users, orders, and order items. It applies dynamic version selection and standardised architecture suitable for high traffic.

How do I verify a generated Go backend project builds and runs correctly?

Verifying a generated Go backend project involves executing dependency resolution, static analysis, and a build process. The generation finishes by running a health-check request against the scaffold to ensure it starts successfully.

Does the Go backend generator provide API documentation and migration guidance?

Yes, the Go backend generator provides API documentation and migration guidance alongside the scaffold. It produces an API contract and project guide detailing the endpoints, middleware ordering, and database setup instructions.

What's the best way to structure a new REST service with Gin and PostgreSQL?

The best way to structure a new REST service with Gin and PostgreSQL is using a convention-driven layered design. This separates handlers, services, and repositories, integrating GORM for persistence and standardising error handling.
