Go Web Application

This is a simple web application built with Golang. It serves HTTP requests using the net/http package and provides a basic API.

Features

• Built using Golang with the net/http package.
• Serves a REST API for retrieving course information.
• Dockerized for easy deployment.
• Kubernetes manifests and Helm charts for scalable deployment.
• CI/CD automation using GitHub Actions and ArgoCD.

Running the Server

To start the server locally, run:

go run main.go

The server will start on port 8080. You can access the API at:

http://localhost:8080/courses

Running with Docker

To build and run the Docker container:

docker build -t yourusername/go-web-app:v1 .
docker run -p 8080:8080 -it yourusername/go-web-app:v1
