This project is an educational framework designed to teach the fundamentals of building core distributed systems and web services from scratch in Go. It provides a collection of modular implementations that demonstrate how to construct essential infrastructure components, including web servers, remote procedure call systems, distributed caches, and database abstraction layers.
The framework distinguishes itself by focusing on the internal mechanics of these systems rather than providing a high-level abstraction for production use. It covers the implementation of complex architectural patterns such as consistent hashing for data distribution, least-recently-used cache eviction, and reflection-based service registration. By building these components manually, the project illustrates how to handle network connectivity, protocol negotiation, and service discovery in a distributed environment.
Beyond core networking and storage, the repository includes implementations for machine learning primitives, such as neural network architectures and training loops, as well as tools for database interaction and object-relational mapping. It also incorporates various utility layers for logging, performance benchmarking, and concurrency management to provide a comprehensive view of system-level programming.
The repository is structured as a series of guided modules, allowing developers to explore the implementation details of each system component through hands-on construction and testing.
