## What it is
A Go port of the classic Java DDD Sample cargo booking application, demonstrating how Domain-Driven Design tactical patterns can be implemented idiomatically in Go. It is explicitly intended for inspiration and study rather than production use.

## Use cases
- learn domain-driven design in go
- see ddd tactical patterns implemented in go
- example of structuring a go enterprise application
- reference for repositories and aggregates in go
- study how to port a java ddd app to go
- sample rest api for cargo booking

## When to choose
- you want a concrete, runnable example of DDD concepts in Go
- you are designing a Go application and want architectural inspiration
- you want to see idiomatic refactoring away from Java-style code

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready framework or library to drop into your project
- you want an actively maintained codebase with recent releases
- you need a tutorial or authoritative best-practice guide, which the author explicitly disclaims

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: web-framework, http-server, api-framework
- domain: developer-tools, education, backend, web-development
- platform: go, cross-platform
- tags: domain-driven-design, ddd, example-application, sample-app, cargo-booking, architecture-patterns, learning-by-example, docker
