Experimental 0.x release: GOWDK v0.3
GOWDK v0.3 is an experimental 0.x compiler/runtime release.
Not production-ready. Public syntax, generated output, runtime packages, and
tooling contracts may change before a stable release.
Implemented
- M3 route, endpoint, and contract reportability for the current 0.x surface.
gowdk endpointsprints a versioned endpoint-only report for actions, APIs,
fragments, and routable command/query contract references.gowdk inspect tree --jsonprints a source-linked compiler node tree for
editor and tooling navigation.gowdk inspect endpoint-graph --jsonprints a source-linked endpoint dispatch
graph with pages, routes, endpoints, guards, handlers, bindings, and notes.gowdk routesexposes source spans, binding state, route params,
render/cache metadata, guards, planned handlers, and non-fatal route-mode
notes for the supported route and endpoint surface.gowdk buildwritesopenapi.jsonfor the routable web surface and
asyncapi.jsonfor contract integration-event metadata.gowdk check --jsondiagnostics can include related source locations, and
the language server reports those locations as related information.- A machine-checked
.gwdkconformance corpus pins accept/reject cases against
stable diagnostic codes. - A per-construct stability and deprecation table documents current language
support and is checked against the code registries. - The shared tokenizer/parser cutover records byte offsets for source positions
and keeps formatter indentation stable around braces inside strings,
comments, and template literals. - Guardless pages are default-denied in generated apps: omission produces a
warning, public access still requiresguard public, and pages with backend
endpoints still hard-error without an explicit guard. v0.3.0release metadata: CLI/editor versions, optional module root-version
requirements, root changelog, release-doc current-version examples, and M3
release-note body.
Partial
- Route, endpoint, and contract reports are versioned for the current 0.x
surface, but broader exact source spans and future report fields may still be
added. - Generated OpenAPI and AsyncAPI reports cover the implemented routable web and
integration-event metadata slices, not every future API or contract shape. - Guard metadata is still generated access redundancy and does not replace
authorization in normal Go backend handlers and services.
Planned
- M4 Go interop: Go binding inspection, stubs, typed params, build/load
contracts, and package resolution. - M5 secure endpoint runtime: strict adapters, request limits, CSRF response
contract, panic boundaries, and tested failure paths. - M7 request-time SSR/hybrid hardening and later component/client-language
milestones remain separate work.
Intentionally Out Of Scope
- Production-readiness claims.
- Migration guides.
- Framework comparison docs as core positioning.
- Mandatory full-page SSR or full-page hydration.
- User-written JavaScript as the normal app contract.
- Mandatory Tailwind, npm, Gin, Echo, Fiber, Redis, NATS, or another optional
framework/tool dependency. - Replacing backend authorization with generated page guards.
Known Gaps
- v0.3 remains experimental and focused on reportability and language/compiler
hardening. - Generated output remains pre-1.0 and unstable unless a reference doc marks a
surface stable. - Secure runtime, SSR/hybrid, component/client, operations, and production
hardening milestones remain incomplete.
Breaking Or Unstable Generated Output
Generated output is pre-1.0. Treat generated Go, generated JavaScript,
manifests, build reports, route reports, endpoint reports, inspect reports, and
runtime package contracts as unstable unless a reference doc explicitly marks a
surface stable.
