I want more people to write full-stack Go applications.

So, I've decided to create a course that teaches you how to build production-grade web applications using Golang.

It's a personal take on what goes into building modern, scalable and robust web application. No single-page applications and JSON RESTful APIs but traditinal multi-page applications with just enough interactivity to deliver a good user experience, but without the depedency and development overhead that comes with SPAs.

I've long wanted to get into creating video tutorials and content.

mbv-labs is meant to be the start of that journey; the channel will contain tutorials, but also videos building features/fixing problems/etc for my other side projects, which can contain code but also higher level discussions on indiehacking and building software.

After hating on php for a long time I finally took some time out to try it out, more specifically Laravel. Boy was I wrong about php.

Laravel is such a great framework with (almost) everything you need out of the box. But I love writing Go, and I've spend too much time in statically typed languages that going back to dynamically typed languages is a no-go for me.

So, I decided to built my own Laravel inspired version in Go which I've called Grafto. It's more of a boilerplate than a framework, but it's a great starting point for building full-stack web applications.

Aimed at indiehackers wanting to ship products fully in Go.

Built with: Go, templ, TailwindCSS and HTMX.
