go_web_app

A front-end scaffold for a Go web app: two HTML templates, a handful of CSS files including a reset, and a small vanilla JS flyout menu. The visible tree has no Go source, go.mod, or README, so this judgment covers only the static side and what the file layout suggests.

The CSS is split by concern, with a reset, a shared app stylesheet, and separate sheets for the flyout button and menu, which is a sensible layout for a small project. The interactivity is one JS file with no framework behind it, so the front end stays small. The 341 stars and 184 forks show that many people took it as a starting point.

The last push was June 2016, so whatever Go version and dependencies it assumed are long out of date. No go.mod appears in the tree, which suggests it predates Go modules and pins nothing. The .idea folder is committed, including workspace.xml, which is per-developer IDE state that belongs in .gitignore even though a .gitignore exists. A file named temp.css in public/css suggests leftover styles were never cleaned up, and no README appears in the tree, so setup instructions are missing unless the truncated listing hid them.
