A Go Library for Better Access Control

In plain words

A Go library designed to simplify access control implementation in software projects. It provides developers with tools to manage permissions and authentication more efficiently within Go applications. The library offers a straightforward approach to handling role-based and attribute-based access control, making it easier for programmers to build secure systems without starting from scratch. Best suited for Go developers working on applications that require flexible permission management.
