Create Go App CLI (cgapp) is a command-line tool that scaffolds production-ready full-stack projects with a Go backend, JavaScript/TypeScript frontend, and deploy automation via Ansible and Docker. It provides an interactive console UI to generate projects from templates and a deploy command to ship them to servers.

Use cases

scaffold a production-ready Go backend project
create a full-stack Go + TypeScript app with one command
generate a Fiber web server boilerplate
automate deployment of a Go app with Ansible and Docker
bootstrap a new web project with backend and frontend templates

When to choose

you want a quick, opinionated Go project setup with frontend and deploy automation included
you use Fiber or similar Go frameworks and want preconfigured templates
you want Ansible/Docker-based deployment out of the box

When to avoid

you need a framework other than the provided Go backend templates
you prefer fully manual control over project structure and build tooling
you need deployment from the official Docker image, which does not support the deploy command
