Project goal and inspiration

On this github repo you can find the explanation of what the idea here is. But basically the goal is to learn some basics on API developement in GO by building a backend web API calculator. This calculator is stateless, meaning that there is no data stored in a database or in memory.

This calculator supports basic operations:

• Addition
• Subtraction
• Multiplication
• Division
• Summation of all values in an array

The OpenAPI specification found in the api directory of this project describes the requirements for the API.
