I’m sure that reading an article about naming your blog posts pays off :) But before you rant over the overkill in the title, since you are here…

In the previous episodes linked at the end of the article I was writing about Phoneinfoga, MOSINT, Kubeshark, Finch, PocketBase, and also Milvus, D2, Act, Io and FZF. Today we will look at some more interesting Golang projects!

Before you download and install any of featured projects, please validate if it is safe! All projects are open source!

1. DDosify — Performance Testing Platform

It’s a nice tool if you want to check how your app will behave with a lot of users accessing it from around the world. It also offers nice charts that show crucial data like latency. Load testing is especially important if you’re building an app that is expected to have a rapid growth to millions of users.

I like how easy it is to set up, and use the system.

2. Kopia — Cross-platform Backup Tool
