GO · OPEN SOURCE FRAMEWORK
NexGo
A Go-powered web framework inspired by Next.js: file-based routing, server-side rendering, hot reload and API routes in a single binary.
Open-source project
The problem
Developers who like Go for its speed and simple deployment still reach for a Node.js stack when they want file-based routing and server rendering.
The solution
NexGo gives Go projects file-based routing, server-side rendering, API routes and hot reload, and compiles the result to a single binary with zero runtime dependencies.
Objective
Bring the Next.js developer experience to Go, with no Node.js or npm in the deployment.

How it was built
