The companion code repository for TECH SCHOOL's Backend Master Class, a course that builds a simple bank backend web service in Go from scratch. It covers database design with transactions, RESTful APIs with Gin, gRPC APIs, JWT/PASETO authentication, Docker, and deployment to Kubernetes on AWS with CI/CD via GitHub Actions.

Use cases

  • learn backend web development in Go
  • build RESTful APIs with Gin
  • learn gRPC and gRPC gateway
  • learn to deploy a Go service to Kubernetes on AWS
  • understand database transactions and isolation levels in Go
  • learn JWT and PASETO authentication
  • set up CI/CD with GitHub Actions for a Go app
  • learn asynchronous background job processing in Go

When to choose

  • you want a structured, step-by-step course building a real Go backend
  • you learn best by following complete, production-oriented example code
  • you want to cover the full stack from database design to Kubernetes deployment
  • you want exposure to both REST and gRPC in one project

When to avoid

  • you need a production-ready banking system rather than educational code
  • you want a framework or library to drop into your own project
  • you don't work in Go and want language-agnostic material
  • you need a maintained financial software product with compliance guarantees
