Welcome to the new and improved Wuphf.com, a digital world made possible by the magic of code (not to be confused with magic beans). This project is a modern reimplementation of the iconic website from The Office, built with Go microservices and orchestrated by Kubernetes.
Wuphf.com 2.0 is a microservice-based architecture leveraging the power of:
- User service: Manages user accounts, authentication, and profiles.
- Notification service: Handles sending instant notifications via Kafka.
- API Gateway: Acts as the single entry point, handles user authentication, routes requests to microservices, and communicates with Kafka.
Each service runs independently within its own container and communicates through gRPC and HTTP protocols. This modular approach ensures scalability, maintainability, and resilience.

- API Gateway
- Docker Integration
- K8s Integration
- Istio
- Tests
- CI
- Web UI
- React Native UI
- Go: The backend language, known for its speed, efficiency, and growing popularity.
- gRPC: Enables efficient and secure inter-service communication.
- HTTP: Used for user-facing APIs and communication with the API Gateway.
- Kafka: A distributed streaming platform for reliable and scalable message delivery (the notification magic!).
- Docker: Packages microservices as self-contained units for easy deployment and scaling.
- Docker Compose: Simplifies multi-container application development and testing.
- Kubernetes: Manages containers in a production environment, automating deployment and scaling.
Could have used RabbitMQ as well, but wanted to use Kafka
