Conclusion

In this tutorial, we created a new web application using Gin and gradually added more functionality. We used tests to build robust route handlers and saw how we can reuse the same code to render a response in multiple formats with minimal effort.

The code for the entire application is available in this Github repository.

Gin is easy to get started with — coupled with Go's built-in functionality, its features make building high quality, well-tested web applications and microservices a breeze. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post them below.
