kit

Kit is a collection of packages that I use to build Go services and programs. A few of the design goals (determining whether kit meets these goals is an exercise for the reader):

• Modularity: Use as much or as little of Kit as you want. Using one package within kit shouldn't require using another one as well.
• Few dependencies: Kit does use some third-party packages, but the ones it uses are required to have permissive licenses and should generally be well-known, well-designed and well-supported.
• Well-tested: Kit's packages should have good coverage from unit and other automated tests. This is still a work-in-progress.

IMPORTANT: Kit is still being actively designed and developed and its API may change at any time.

Acknowledgements

Kit would not exist without several open source packages:

• Chi provides the underlying router for the web package as well as several of the middlewares.
• github.com/pkg/errors is used for wrapping errors.
• github.com/jmoiron/sqlx provides some nice-to-have API functions for SQL-based databases.
• github.com/stretchr/testify is used for testing.
