CDPG Go developer portal

Build and review CDPG Go services from an empty repository through gateway exposure, authorization, event integration, local testing, and GitOps deployment. The portal combines an evidence-backed platform guide with a progressive Go curriculum.

Platform status: Partially implemented. The platform is before its first production release. Every architecture and integration page distinguishes implemented source behavior from planned target capability.

Learning outcomes​

By the end you can:

  • write idiomatic, race-free Go with explicit error and context flow;
  • design a layered service whose business logic has no transport or driver imports;
  • use dx-common-go/platform for bootstrap, HTTP, SQL, cache, events, identity, errors, paging, and health;
  • secure a route through the gateway with OIDC, destination-bound workload identity, constrained subject propagation, and relationship authorization;
  • administer grants with dx-acl-go, consume current OpenFGA checks, and prepare safely for planned OPA policy;
  • enforce typed carried decisions in Data Plane services without accepting executable policy queries or calling the PDP per query;
  • test units, adapters, contracts, security boundaries, and full-stack flows;
  • deploy and operate a service through the platform's GitOps model;
  • submit a focused, evidence-backed contribution.

Start here​

  1. CDPG platform orientation
  2. Current and target state
  3. Go service architecture standard
  4. Shared Go platform modules
  5. New service quick start

How the curriculum works​

  1. Learn the concept and its failure modes.
  2. Read one current source example.
  3. Practice in a small exercise.
  4. Check your understanding without copying the sample.
  5. Verify with tests, race checks, or a running stack.

Authoritative references​

The curriculum teaches. It does not duplicate reference documentation:

New Go learners start with Environment, then use the roadmap to track milestones. Service developers start with the learning paths.
