You Want Modules, Not Microservices
1 project | /r/programming | 29 Mar 2023

I feel like the types of people that use ArchUnit are the types of people that misuse it anyway. Even the elevator pitch example in the project repository is of the backwards horizontal layering that leads any change to carpet bomb a project.
Anything similar to ArchUnit in Go?

The generated classes should be put into .gitignore. Otherwise, if you have Checkstyle, PMD, or SonarQube in your project, then generated classes can violate some rules. Besides, if you don't put them into .gitignore, then each pull request might become huge due to the fact that even a slightest fix can lead to lots of changes in the generated classes.
