• Prefix your Go functions with Query, Form, or Command to clarify their purpose. Here are some examples:
  • QueryTodos - To fetch a list of todos.
  • FormCreateTodo - To create a new todo item.
  • CommandDeleteTodo - To delete an existing todo.
  • QueryTodoByID - To get a specific todo by its ID.
  • CommandUpdateTodo - To update an existing todo item.
