golang-standards/project-layout

golang-standards/project-layout is a widely used, non-official community guide for standard Go application project structure. It is documentation-focused, not a code-heavy application, and its current content emphasizes common directory patterns like cmd, internal, pkg, vendor, configs, deployments, docs, examples, scripts, and test. The repository is active, with recent translation and README maintenance, but forks are most useful as reference implementations or opinionated templates rather than as a finished product.
