scaffold-go

Scaffold a production-ready Go project by supplying a module path and optional app name to generate standard cmd/ and internal/app/ directories, a Makefile, GitHub Actions CI, and test/lint setup. This creates a Git repository structure ready for immediate development.

A standard Go project setup includes a cmd/<APP_NAME> directory layout, internal/app/ structure, Makefile with build/test/lint/docker targets, GitHub Actions CI workflows for automated testing, and initial application scaffolding to start development immediately.

No, you do not need to manually run go mod init. The scaffolding process enforces input-driven module initialization automatically when you supply the module path, configuring Go tooling integration and creating the project directory.

Yes, you can use this Go project scaffolding for both new Go services and CLI applications. It generates a complete project skeleton with standard layouts, CI configuration, and tooling integration tailored for either use case.

Yes, the generated Go scaffold includes GitHub Actions CI workflows configured for automated testing and linting. It also provides a Makefile with common targets and initial tests to ensure immediate development readiness.

Scaffolding a Go project automates directory creation, module initialization, and CI configuration, reducing setup time and ensuring consistency across services. It eliminates repetitive manual configuration of Makefiles, linting, and GitHub Actions.
