go-standard-package-layout

What problem does it solve?

Structure Go applications using Ben Johnson's Standard Package Layout to improve maintainability and clarity by separating domain logic, dependency-bound subpackages, and explicit wiring.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Root package contains the domain core with pure logic and no external dependencies
• Subpackages named after each external dependency isolate integration points
• Shared mock package simplifies testing without external frameworks
• Main wiring composes all components explicitly for predictable builds

Quick Start

Start by placing domain types in the root package, creating dependency-named subpackages for external concerns, and wiring everything explicitly in the cmd package.
