Building A Central Go Modules Repository
summary
Built a central Go modules registry (Go Center) that serves author-authored go.mod files and an on‑page populated go.mod suggestion generated by go mod tidy so users can copy/paste a reproducible file. Early choice to auto‑populate and lock versions (to guarantee immutable versions) proved non‑reproducible when tidy changed resolutions, so the system switches to honoring intent for interoperability while highlighting a locked example and urging tags, no pseudo‑versions, and version locking.
