Gourze - Course Marketplace Backend

Gourze is a high-performance course marketplace backend built with Golang, designed to empower educators and learners by providing a scalable and efficient infrastructure. With a strong focus on modularity and performance, Gourze leverages PostgreSQL for reliable data storage, GORM as its ORM for seamless database interactions, and Fx for structured dependency injection. To ensure smooth media management, the platform integrates with BunnyCDN, enabling high-speed and cost-effective hosting of course videos and images. Gourze is built to handle real-world marketplace demands, making it an ideal solution for developers seeking experience in building modern, production-grade backend systems.
