gwiz

gwiz

What is this?

This is my attempt to build a simple webapp in go. It's basically going to be the barebones "Rails for Zombies" except written in go. Once I get things into a working state, I plan to play around a lot with the architecture, especially at the database/models interaction layer. No ORMs! :)

Why?

I am bored. I want to learn how.

Why is it called gwiz?

Well, the "g" comes from the fact that it's written in go. The "wiz" is a bit more of a stretch that probably offers some insight into how weird my mind is.

Ready?

Rails for Zombies leads me to think about zombies. Zombies eat brains. Eating more brains must surely make you smarter. Children that are smart are sometimes called "wiz kids". Wiz.

Should you use this?

Absolutely not.

Can you learn from this?

Maybe? Time will tell.
