A skeleton Go project template providing a Makefile and Dockerfile that encode best-practice build, test, lint, and container-image workflows. It uses Docker buildx to build binaries and multi-architecture container images with manifest lists.

Use cases

• scaffold a new Go application with a production-grade build setup
• build multi-architecture Docker images for a Go binary
• standardize make-based build, test, and lint targets across Go projects
• publish container manifest lists to a registry
• embed golangci-lint and go-licenses tooling in a Go build
• compute image version tags from git tags

When to choose

• starting a new Go project and wanting battle-tested Makefile/Dockerfile conventions
• needing reproducible containerized builds with multi-arch support
• wanting versioning derived from git tags with dirty-state detection

When to avoid

• your project uses Bazel or another build system already
• you develop on Windows or macOS without Linux/Docker buildx support
• you need a full CI pipeline rather than local build tooling
