Many ideas are taken from Mat Ryer's talk titled "How I Write HTTP Web Services after Eight Years" at GopherCon 2019, seen here:

Alternately, even just feedback is great: sneak@sneak.berlin

Features

Basic logging middleware
Stub Authentication middleware
Helper functions for encoding/decoding json

Design Decisions

TLS is terminated somewhere else, like on a sidecar or reverse proxy.
logging: rs/zerolog
configuration: spf13/viper
mux/router: gorilla/mux
templating: TBD (suggestions welcome)
database: TBD (thinking about go-gorm/gorm)

TODO

Database Boilerplate
sync.Once example for precompiling templates
