Thanks for this feedback. To be precise, Am looking at two things
1. Receiving raw post data in Go (like HTML PHP Forms) where I have a file
receive.go that can read the post as it comes.
2. Receiving json data Like in PHP Json ( $data = json_decode(
file_get_contents('php://input'), true);)
The above should be in Golang.
Is this more clear?
