## What it is
GoWebApp is a basic MVC web application template in Go that demonstrates how to structure and build a website without a framework. It includes user registration and login with support for Bolt, MongoDB, and MySQL databases.

## Use cases
- learn how to structure a Go web application without a framework
- starter template for building a Go MVC website
- example of user registration and login in Go
- see how to wire Bolt, MongoDB, or MySQL into a Go app
- reference for organizing Go web project folders

## When to choose
- you want a minimal, framework-free Go web app skeleton to learn from or fork
- you need a simple example of auth (login/register) in Go
- you prefer plain Go standard library patterns over heavy frameworks

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready, actively maintained web framework
- you want an API-only backend (use the author's gowebapi instead)
- you need modern Go module support out of the box on the main branch

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: web-framework, auth, templating, routing
- domain: web-development, backend, developer-tools
- platform: go, cross-platform
- tags: mvc, boilerplate, starter-template, golang, no-framework, user-authentication, web-server
