A simple go backend template using :

• gin web framework
• atlas for migrations
• sqlc to compile SQL queries to type-safe go code
• postgresql with the pgx driver
• docker for easy deployment and good local dx
• goth to manage multi-provider auth, right now only Google added (see .env.example)

Auth is configured to send a short-lived jwt token. There is an endpoint to refresh the token. There is also a github action configured to run test and migrate database when updates are pushed on prod branch
