goimports-reviser – Sort and Format Go Imports

goimports-reviser is a command-line tool for organising imports in Go source code according to configurable grouping rules. It distinguishes standard-library imports from general dependencies, project dependencies, and optional company-specific packages, giving projects more control over import layout than a simple alphabetical pass.

The program can also perform source formatting, allowing import organisation and code cleanup to be combined in one workflow. It accepts individual files, directories, recursive targets, and multiple paths, making it suitable for editor integration and repository-wide checks.

This is free and open source software.
