GoQueue

A job queue for Go that grows with your system

GoQueue launched on January 23, 2026 with 4 votes, #5,239 of 14,584 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

What it does

GoQueue is a job queue for Go apps that lets you start simple and scale later. You can use an in-memory driver for development, switch to Redis for production, and move to SQS when you need cloud scale — without rewriting your jobs. The goal is to keep the API small and predictable, while letting the backend evolve as your system grows.

GoQueue - The flexible Go job queue that grows with you. Start with in-memory for development, scale to Redis for production, or deploy to AWS SQS for the cloud. Built-in retries, DLQ, middleware pipeline, and observability - everything you need for reliable background processing. - saravanasai/goqueue

  • PgQueuer – Transform PostgreSQL into a Job Queue2024 · github.com · ▲376

    PgQueuer is a Python job queue that uses PostgreSQL for everything — queue storage, locking, notifications. No Redis, no RabbitMQ, no separate broker to operate. If your app already has Postgres, you already have the broker. After ~2 years and 26 minor releases, 1.0 ships today as the first stable release. Strict semver from here on. Thanks to everyone who contributed and left feedback!

  • Talanoa▲346

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
