Show HN: Build a Google Analytics in Go (opens in new tab)

My 2nd Go course is officially out. For that one, I use a more hands-on approach. In the course, we build a full website analytics tool from scratch to deployment.

The technology used is Go, TypeScript, Docker, PostgreSQL, and ClickHouse.

I wanted to demonstrate why Go and ClickHouse for analytics can perform decently for high volume / high traffic sites.

The dashboard is a CLI with bar graphs, pie charts, and data tables.

The link has a 30% discount, and I fully adhere to Purchasing Power Parity, so it's possible to get a fair price based on country.

I hope this sounds interesting. I had a great time building the course and using the analytics on my side projects.

This is cool. In general, analytics API seems like a good beginner project to recommend as a Todolist alternative.

Cheers to learning
