Backend & Web

Libraries and frameworks I use when building HTTP or RPC services in Go.

Tool	Status	When I reach for it
net/http + chi router	daily	Standard HTTP services — lightweight, composable middleware
gRPC	daily	Internal service-to-service communication with strong contracts
REST / OpenAPI	daily	Public-facing APIs where broad client compatibility matters
sqlc	daily	Generating type-safe Go from SQL queries — no ORM overhead
Connect-RPC	learning	Browser-friendly gRPC over HTTP/1.1 without a proxy
Wire (dependency injection)	learning	Compile-time DI graph for larger services
html/template	learning	Server-rendered HTML for admin UIs or lightweight frontends
