Create a REST API with Go | Simple Blog App

In this video we will learn how to implement a REST API with Go. We will learn what a REST API is: what constitutes a RESTful service, who created it, and how to create and consume it. We will learn what a resource is and how we serve those at endpoints.

We will use Go, Postgres, Docker, Docker Compose, and Postman to create this app. Our app will be a simple CRUD REST API that will handle our DATA with JSON and store it in Postgres. Each of our services will be a Docker container and we will use Docker Compose as our container orchestration tool.
