ASCII-Art Web

#go #learning #showdev #webdev

Over the past two weeks, I have made great progress in Go. I implemented a small program that accepts user input and displays ASCII art on a webpage. What I learned from this project is that it can be embedded on the web to display blurred images.
The interesting part was implementing a mapping server to GET static files from the static directory:

fs := http.FileServer(http.Dir("static"))

This line handles the GET requests by mapping CSS to the Go backend. It is implemented at the top of main.go, followed by this line:

http.Handle("/static/", http.StripPrefix("/static/", fs))

I enjoy using HTML and CSS to create nice-looking webpages.
