## Description

Bud is a full-stack web framework for Go that functions as a scaffolding engine and code generation tool. It automates the creation of directory structures, controllers, and glue code to streamline the development of web applications.

The framework utilizes a transpiler-based approach to produce application boilerplate and provides a development environment featuring hot reloading and local server management. It enables the compilation of applications into single, standalone binaries with support for cross-platform compilation across different operating systems and architectures.

The system includes an HTTP routing engine with case-insensitive URI routing and request-scoped dependency injection. It also supports server-side rendering of content and integration with frontend frameworks.
