First project in go, can i get some feedback?

So I’m trying to learn golang and i started with an api rest project but I’m kinda lost with good practices. I tried to follow everything i’ve found to do a decent project. Thanks!

I dislike your module names. they feel java-y. for example I think I would like the domain/ folder be named to be named models, because even in for example your profile_handler.go file, you're renaming the package to models. something to think about

also i just posted this in the other channel but https://laurentsv.com/blog/2024/10/19/no-nonsense-go-package-layout.html may apply to u

That’s on me for sure.. excluding some low-level projects with c, I’ve always been a Java guy hahaha. So thank you so much for the feedback and that resource you sent, I’ll check it out!

it's a very common thing for people coming from other languages. u wanna structure stuff the same way u have been. here's another good resource (I think, I haven't watched it but one of the herders recommended it to someone else so)

though this is more for packages rather than the whole of the program. but still applies to subpackages in ur program

Nice, thanks again!

I noticed that you are using an HTTP Header for authorization using jwt. If the client is a web-application it is better to save the jwt to a cookie, because a cookie is more secure then localstorage in the browser.

in general JWTs make me nervous

Eventually I’ll go with smh more serious, for a first project i wanted to keep it simple and focus on learning go basics haha
