How to Build a CLI Reminder Application in GO
Blog post from Twilio
The tutorial explains how to create a Command Line Interface (CLI) reminder application using the Go programming language, aiming to help users manage tasks efficiently without a graphical interface. It details setting up a Go environment with version 1.22 or higher, using SQLite for data storage, and writing the main application code in a single file, main.go. The application allows users to schedule reminders using natural language inputs and handles tasks such as adding, fetching, and deleting reminders. It incorporates features like sound alerts and desktop notifications compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux. The tutorial also guides compiling the application into an executable for easy access and suggests using the Cobra library for creating more robust CLI applications.
