A Go backend project template implementing clean architecture with layered structure (Router, Controller, Usecase, Repository, Domain). It ships with Gin, MongoDB, JWT authentication middleware, tests, and Docker setup.

Use cases

• start a new Go backend project with clean architecture
• learn how to structure a Gin and MongoDB backend
• add JWT authentication middleware in Go
• see how to test Go backend with Testify and Mockery
• dockerize a Go REST API backend
• understand controller-usecase-repository layering in Go

When to choose

• you want a well-structured starting template for a Go REST API
• you want to study clean architecture applied to Go backends
• you need JWT auth, MongoDB, and Docker wired up out of the box

When to avoid

• you need a production system with different databases or frameworks than Gin/MongoDB
• you prefer minimal scaffolding or a different architectural style
• you need a full application rather than a template
