Apart from the JWT thing (please avoid JWT if possible), I agree with this comment 100%. Things I'd like to see in a Go web app example site:

1. Examples of using context values to pass things selectively to handlers.

2. An arbitrary trivial middleware example, like a specialized request logger, just to demonstrate Go middleware.

3. A Rails/Django-style session token done in the same middleware style.

4. Giving requests a notion of "current user".

5. Simplified user-visible vs. developer-visible error handling.

It's too much to ask for ORM-style database query examples, I know, but that too would be nice.
