Semi related question: what resources do you recommend for go's state of the art regarding best practices, idiomatic project structure, tooling and the like? Preferably books, but I'll take anything.

I searched recently and most of what I saw were either in depth books about the language itself, outdated blog posts, or non-relevant books that just happened to use go to explore an unrelated topic.

Well, we obviously have paid courses that cover all this, but if you want my personal opinion on package layout, Ben Johnson really has a great article on it here: https://www.gobeyond.dev/packages-as-layers/

Thanks for the mention, Cory. Great article, btw!

To the parent post, there are several articles on Go Beyond[1] that walk through development of an open-source, real-world application called WTF Dial[2]. The source is available on GitHub and you can ask Go application design questions on the Discussions board[3].
