Out of interest, is the built-in Go server what everyone uses for hosting their Go websites? I'm used to the typical Nginx / Gunicorn / Python stack and Python's built-in server is used for nothing more than development.

We typically run go's built-in server behind nginx. There's no need for something like gunicorn in go.

But this would not work in this set-up right? Wouldn't the user facing server (in your case Nginx) have to be the one that serves over HTTPS?

I'm a bit confused about this package.

I'm running a bare Go server behind CloudFlare.
