Cake Order Tracker

A lightweight, robust order management system built with Go and SQLite. This project focuses on a clean monolithic architecture, transactional data integrity, and a high-performance, single-binary deployment model.

Key Features

• Order Lifecycle Management: Full CRUD operations for products and customer orders with SQL transactions to ensure data consistency.
• Live Asynchronous Search: Real-time order filtering by date range utilizing HTMX for partial DOM updates and reduced server payload.
• Custom Authentication: Secure session-based authentication featuring salted password hashing and middleware-based route protection.
• Embedded Assets: Single-binary deployment utilizing Go embed for HTML templates, static assets (HTMX, FontAwesome), and SQL migrations.
• Interactive Client-Side Logic: Dynamic order composition with real-time total price calculation using vanilla JavaScript and HTML5 templates.

Tech Stack

• Backend: Go (Golang)
• Database: SQLite
• Frontend: HTMX, Go HTML Templates, CSS, JavaScript
• Tooling: Versioned SQL Migrations, Go Toolchain

Architectural Highlights

1. Database Persistence

The system implements a versioned migration system. The schema handles relationships between orders and products via join tables, ensuring integrity through the database/sql package's transaction support.

2. Separation of Concerns

• /models: Pure data structures for cross-package communication.
• /store: Encapsulated data persistence layer containing all SQL logic and migrations.
• /server: HTTP routing, handler logic, and multi-entry template rendering.
• /auth: Dedicated security layer providing middleware for session validation.

Installation and Running

1. Run the application:

go run main.go
