For everyone looking to get started with building web apps and auth APIs with go.
I worked on a go and react project over the weekend to help you get started on authentication with golang, complete with a postgresql database and token based authentication using JWT.
Here is the url.

go-postgres-react-starter
A go, postgres API with basic jwt auth starter, complete with a react frontend
GO-React starter
This is a basic example of a go web server with a react frontend.
It uses the go fiber framework
Getting started

Download and install postgres
Setup your postgres database, env secrets can be changed in the .env file
Ensure you have make installed.

Server is live on :8081 and UI is on :3000
