The assignment

Create a Products API which returns data using proper REST syntax, e.g.

• GET /products should return a list of products
• GET /products/1 should return the product with id = 1
• POST /products should create a product and return the path to said product

You should use some sort of database and add seed functionality to add some initial dummy data.

You can use data from https://fakestoreapi.com/products if you can't come up with something yourself :)

Now, create a second service which stands as a gateway to the API, so calls comes through the gateway, routes to API, responds to user.

E.g.:

1. User requests GET /api/products
2. Gateway receives the call and requests the products API
   1. GET /products
3. Products API returns data to gateway
4. Gateway returns data to user.

What communication type you use is up to you (HTTP, gRPC, etc.)

As the last part, create a middleware in the gateway, which logs the time used to process the entire request

Requirements

1. Do not use the default HTTP router, use fiber, gin or something else
2. Do not use the default fmt or log, use zerolog, zap or something else
