GoShed is your personal Go workshop - a powerful, interactive tool for creating and managing Go project playgrounds. It's designed to make experimentation and prototyping in Go as frictionless as possible.
Every developer knows the dance: you have an idea, want to try a new library, or need to prototype a concept. You create a new directory, initialize a Go module, set up the basic files... and often delete everything later because it was just an experiment.
GoShed streamlines this entire process by providing:
- Instant Playgrounds: Create ready-to-use Go environments in seconds
- Smart Management: Keep track of all your experiments without cluttering your workspace
- Automatic Cleanup: No more stale test projects taking up space
- Seamless Promotion: Turn successful experiments into real projects with a single command
- Interactive UI: Beautiful terminal UI for easy project management
# Start interactive mode
goshed -i
# Or use CLI commands
goshed new -n myapi -t web- Basic: Simple Go program structure
- Web: HTTP server with routing setup
- CLI: Command-line application boilerplate
- More templates coming soon!
- Auto-cleanup: Automatically remove unused playgrounds
- Project Promotion: Convert experiments to full projects
- Project Tags: Organize and categorize your work
- Notes System: Keep track of your experiments
- VS Code Integration: Open projects directly in your editor
- Beautiful terminal UI powered by Bubble Tea
- Intuitive keyboard controls
- Project insights at a glance
- Quick actions for common tasks
