This repo is a demonstration on how to implement a clean architecture in Golang

Although there are many ways and variations on how to implement clean architecture, for this repo my goals are:

1. Write clean architecture in a Golang way. Using a common folder structure for Go projects (/cmd, /internal, /pkg...)
2. Implement it without many deviations or personal preferences. By the book. So that it can serve as a reference for those who want to understand clean architecture in the purest form.
3. Not be a complete scaffolding for new projects. Therefore, avoid placing a real DB connection, Docker structure... to avoid polluting it with too many files and information.
4. Trying to explicit the SOLID principles more clearly through the code organization.
