HTMX with Go and Fiber Development Guidelines

A set of best practices and instructions for integrating HTMX with Go and Fiber, focusing on efficient and secure development:

HTMX, Go, and Fiber Best Practices

• Use Fiber’s HTML rendering for server-side templates and its routing system for HTMX requests.
• Utilize Fiber’s middleware for request processing and JSON methods for API responses.
• Implement proper error handling with Fiber’s error handling and use its static file serving for assets.

Folder Structure

Organize code into a structured directory:

textcmd/
  main.go
internal/
  handlers/
  models/
  templates/
static/
  css/
  js/
go.mod
go.sum

Additional Instructions

• Use Fiber’s App.Get/Post/etc for routing HTMX requests.
• Implement CSRF protection using Fiber middleware.
• Utilize Fiber’s Context for handling HTMX-specific headers and its template engine for server-side rendering.
• Implement proper logging with Fiber’s Logger middleware and follow Fiber’s best practices for project structure.
• Use environment variables for configuration.
