Stop Rewriting Go Service Boilerplate: Ship a Production-Ready API Faster with gogen

Every backend team says the same thing when starting a new service:
“This one will be lean.”
Then the infrastructure checklist arrives.
Configuration loading. Structured logging. Metrics. Retries. Health checks. Graceful shutdown. Validation. Cache layers. Cloud clients. Test utilities.
None of this is core business logic, but all of it is essential in production.
After seeing this pattern repeat across teams and projects, I consolidated battle-tested building blocks into one open-source project: gogen.
