In this episode, we dive into the powerful concept of middleware in Go's net/http package. Middleware allows you to run code before or after your main handler logic, making it perfect for logging, authentication, and error-handling tasks.

What You'll Learn:
- Creating custom middleware for logging requests.
- Chaining multiple middlewares for more complex scenarios.
- Implementing a global logging middleware for all API endpoints.

Key Highlights:
- Middleware Basics: Understand the role and structure of middleware in a Go web server.
- Practical Examples: Follow along with practical examples to create and use middleware effectively.
