scaffold
A CLI tool that generates starter Go project layouts with Docker, configs, and web server boilerplate.
What is scaffold?
Scaffold is a Go-based CLI tool that generates starter project layouts for Go applications. It automates the creation of directories, configuration files, Docker setups, and web server boilerplate, enabling developers to begin coding business logic immediately. The tool produces a standardized structure with components like `cmd/`, `config/`, `model/`, and `web/` directories.
Go developers and teams starting new projects who want a production-ready foundation without manual boilerplate setup. It's particularly useful for those building web services or microservices with Docker.
Developers choose Scaffold because it saves time by providing a consistent, best-practice project layout out of the box, complete with Docker support and configuration management. Its simplicity and focus on convention reduce setup complexity compared to manually structuring projects.
