This is a Go CLI tool that scrapes certification exam questions and answers from the examtopics.com website, which is otherwise paywalled or requires manual browsing. The tool accepts a provider (e.g., google, cisco) and a search string to filter exams, then fetches all discussion pages, extracts question data (text, choices, community-voted answer, timestamp, comments), and outputs the results in Markdown, JSON, HTML, PDF, or plain text. It includes optional caching via a GitHub repository of pre-scraped data, rate limiting, retry logic, and concurrent request concurrency. The architecture is a single-binary monolith with internal packages for fetching, scraping, and file output. The code is functional but unremarkable—standard Go patterns with some concurrency, though the global counter and finalizer usage are minor anti-patterns.

This is a lightweight SMTP server written in Go, designed to receive large volumes of email, parse MIME content, and store messages in MongoDB. It includes a web interface for viewing messages, managing greylisting, and real-time notifications via WebSockets (using the embedded Incus library). The server implements core SMTP commands (HELO/EHLO, MAIL, RCPT, DATA, AUTH, STARTTLS, XCLIENT) and supports TLS, greylisting, and spam filtering via regex. The architecture is monolithic: a single binary runs both the SMTP listener and an HTTP server for the web UI. The codebase is functional but shows signs of age: it uses deprecated dependencies (gopkg.in/mgo.v2, github.com/robfig/config, github.com/gosexy/redis), lacks a go.mod file, and has no automated tests. The SMTP protocol handling is reasonably robust, and the MIME parsing is non-trivial, but the overall project would benefit from modernization and testing.

This repository consists solely of a README.md file containing 100 Golang interview questions and answers for 2026. It serves as an educational resource covering Go language fundamentals like workspace architecture, GOPATH, slices, goroutines, channels, error handling, and data types. The content explains concepts with code snippets but does not include any executable source files, project structure, or buildable components. Despite the recent commit activity indicating maintenance, the absence of actual code means the repository functions only as static documentation rather than a runnable application or reusable library.

This repository is a documentation-only project that describes a conventional directory layout for Go applications. It contains no executable source code, no tests, no CI/CD pipelines, and no functional software of any kind. The entire repository consists of README files (translated into ~20 languages), a placeholder go.mod with a dummy module path, a nearly empty Makefile, and .keep files in empty directories. The go.mod references go 1.19 and contains no dependencies. There are no Go source files anywhere in the repository. The project serves purely as a reference template showing recommended directory structures (cmd/, internal/, pkg/, api/, web/, configs/, scripts/, build/, deployments/, test/, docs/, tools/, examples/, third_party/, githooks/, assets/, website/, init/) for Go projects, with links to real-world examples that follow these conventions. The last commit was in April 2026 but there is essentially nothing to maintain — the content is static documentation that has remained unchanged in substance for years. The README itself acknowledges this is not an official Go team standard but a community-driven collection of common patterns.
