I often point to Upspin as it's a real-world Go project by folks closely related to the Go project (including Rob Pike).

MODERATORS
Apparently this repo is NOT any sort of standard, yet a lot of people are fooled to believe that based on the repo’s account name and the project’s name. I see this mentioned whenever this is asked… just an FYI…
Some aspects of that repo are actually language features, such as the pkg and internal directories.
pkg/ isn't a language feature. It's just a popular convention that used to be used in the Go standard library.
The language feature is the internal/ directory, and it's function of restricting dependencies from external programs.
That is correct, internal/ is a feature. I was just clarifying that the pkg/ folder isn’t any sort of language feature as you had said it was.
The folks over at changelog have made a quite nice podcast episode about it on gotime: https://changelog.com/gotime/278
I found the conversation to be quite insightful.
Not quite what you’re looking for, but Google does have an official style guide which may be slightly helpful
