I'm new to Go. I'm understanding the basics more and more but now I'm trying to learn how to interface the code with HTML.
My simple scenario is that I have a single web page with a list that's created by Go fetching information from a database, then building the html page from a group of templates. All I want is to make a simple list that will allow me to somehow mark it as complete/done when the <div>
is clicked or something. Also, to be able to fully delete a "row" in my webpage list, a div basically.
So my list will indicate something is complete (I assume I must use Go to alter the css) and delete an item (completely remove that block of html). And remember, these items are stored in a database, so I must be able to identify the specific item.
Any help, ideas, resources, pseudocode, pointers would be greatly appreciated!
In web development, there are two "ends" where code executes; the browser and the server, aka. the front-end and the back-end.
A "click" happens in the browser and will execute code in the browser. That "browser-code" in turn may or may not contact the server for additional information and then render that information to the browser.
That means; the server has no control over what happens in the browser* and vice versa. That's the basics of web development.
Go is a language good for building servers. Javacript is the language that most browsers understand. What you need is Javascript, not Go.
* this is not entirely true but good enough as a base to start learning.
