About this product
Go API Depot is a standard-library-first REST API template: net/http routing, sqlc-generated queries against PostgreSQL, structured logging with slog, and configuration from the environment. There is no framework to learn and nothing that will be abandoned in two years.
The template includes request validation, consistent error responses, API-key and JWT authentication middleware, rate limiting, request IDs, health and readiness endpoints, graceful shutdown and an OpenAPI 3.1 document generated from the handlers. Integration tests run against a real Postgres container.
Lars has annotated every security-relevant decision, from timing-safe token comparison to the limits on request body size.

Frequently asked questions
Still unsure about something? Write to our contact page and a human answers, usually the same working day.
Since Go 1.22 the standard router handles methods and path parameters, so a framework adds dependencies without adding much.
Checkout is handled on our provider's secure payment page. The moment your payment clears we email your personal access link and access code to the address you used at checkout, and the same link appears in your account library. There is nothing to install and nothing to wait for.
Email within 14 days of your purchase, quote your order number, and we refund the full amount to your original payment method. No form to fill in and no questions about how much of the product you watched.

Rated 5.0 out of 5No framework, no regrets
Standard library routing and sqlc is exactly how I like to write Go. The security annotations taught me a couple of things about request limits.

Lars started out in penetration testing and moved into backend engineering, so he writes Go services the way an attacker would read them. He maintains the Go API and Postgres tenancy modules and the whole Security line. His audit kits explain the reason behind every check, because a checklist nobody understands gets skipped.
