## What it is
Gowebly is a next-generation CLI tool for scaffolding full-stack web applications with a Go backend and htmx, hyperscript, or Alpine.js frontends. It generates project structures with popular Go routers (Fiber, Gin, Echo, Chi, etc.), CSS frameworks (Tailwind, Bootstrap, UnoCSS, etc.), Templ support, and live-reload via Air.

## Use cases
- scaffold a new Go web application with htmx frontend
- generate a Go project with Tailwind CSS setup
- create a full-stack app using Go and Alpine.js
- set up a Go backend with Fiber or Gin quickly
- bootstrap a web project with live-reload development
- build HTML templates in Go using Templ

## When to choose
- starting a new Go web project and wanting to skip boilerplate setup
- building server-rendered apps with htmx instead of a JS SPA framework
- you want preconfigured integration of Go routers with CSS frameworks
- you prefer a simple, documented project structure ready for production

## When to avoid
- building a heavy client-side SPA with React, Vue, or Angular
- you need a fully custom project layout the generator cannot produce
- your stack is not Go-based on the backend
