IAM is an enterprise-grade identity and access management system written in Go, used to authenticate users and authorize access to resources. It also serves as a teaching project with an accompanying course and as a scaffold for developers to build their own Go applications.

Use cases

• build an identity and access management system in Go
• learn enterprise-level Go project development
• manage API authentication and authorization
• use a Go project scaffold for a new backend service
• implement JWT-based REST API auth in Go
• study a production-style Go microservice architecture

When to choose

• you need a self-hosted IAM/auth server and want to study or extend its Go source code
• you are learning enterprise Go development through the accompanying course or book
• you want a battle-tested scaffold with auth, ORM, and API patterns already wired up

When to avoid

• you need a turnkey commercial IAM product with GUI administration and minimal coding
• your stack is not Go or you cannot deploy on Linux servers
• you only need simple session auth in a small app where a full IAM system is overkill
