What is tache?

Tache is a tool for Go programmers who need to manage background jobs and scheduled tasks within their applications. It gives developers a straightforward way to say "run this piece of code later" or "run this every ten minutes" without building that scheduling logic from scratch. At a high level, it works as an in-process task queue. When a developer writes a function that should run in the background, they register it with tache and specify when or how often it should execute. The library then handles the timing, keeps track of what needs to run, and makes sure those jobs fire at the right moment, all from inside the application itself, with no external service required. This would appeal to someone building a Go web service or backend system where certain operations shouldn't block the main request. For example, if a user uploads a photo and you need to generate thumbnails, you might hand that work to a background task so the user gets an immediate response. Similarly, if you need to send a summary email every Monday morning or refresh a cache every few minutes, this kind of library handles the scheduling for you. The README doesn't go into detail beyond stating that it is a task manager for Go. There's no documentation of specific features, configuration options, or setup instructions available, so it's hard to say much about how it compares to other approaches or what tradeoffs it makes. Anyone considering it would need to look at the source code or any additional docs in the repository to understand what it offers in practice.
