Why this project?
We know it's sometimes overwhelming to learn all about your tools before you can work with them. We hope you can use this repository as reference material on your development journey.
Please feel free to use this project as a template for your web application. It's a nice way to kick-start your work so you don't need to spend time on your framework - the piece we really enjoy.
We chose a sample notepad application because it's a concept that is easy to understand and uses many of the pieces you will use in any web application you build. This project uses Vue on the front-end (UI) and Go on the back-end (API). This project is designed to show good development and CI/CD practices as well as integrations between modern development tools.
