Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Should I take the Ardan Labs course? If yes, then which one?
Ultimate Service was useful for me. None of the "backend" concepts were new, but you get to see how Bill would layout/design an API-based service. If you're experienced you'll notice the opinionated choices he makes, and I found myself saying "Nah, I'm not sure I'd do it like that". I appreciated its use of Kubernetes and KIND as I'd never played with them before. How he uses Docker to spin up a DB instance for tests is pretty cool. There's a lot of copy & paste as you code along with him (you copy from the "finished project" and paste into your work in progress). The full example project is online at https://github.com/ardanlabs/service. You won't write all that code, and this version is newer than the one I did, but it gives you an idea of what you might learn.

If you could go back in time | What would you do different regarding go
So what can you do insted? For testing databases, setup a docker instance for tests (e.g. like in https://github.com/ardanlabs/service), or start an embedded-postgres daemon (see https://github.com/fergusstrange/embedded-postgres). For communication with external APIs, just pass the http.Client (either in context.Context or as a field on the struct). Then in tests, you can override the http.Client.Transport func.

GO web sever - file structuring convention
Take a look at https://github.com/ardanlabs/service from Bill Kennedy. You can probably simplify the structure a bit since your project is minimal, but that repo is gold.

Say you're mentoring someone just getting comfortable with go. What do you think they should know?
Checkout https://github.com/ardanlabs/service for inporation. Tip: try to avoid creating a service package with all services, a domain package with all domain structs, etc.

https://github.com/ardanlabs/service This is something which I really like and has taken into account a lot of engineering decisions.

Microservices: GoLang in a Spring Cloud architecture
To implement service discovery in our GoLang microservice we will use GoKit, a toolkit for microservices that provides support to auth, log, service discovery, tracing and more. For this starter code the mod already installed, you can skip this step

FRAMEWORKS IN GOLANG.
5. kit. The kit framework is a programming toolkit for building robust, reliable, and maintainable microservices in Golang. It is a collection of packages and best practices that offer businesses of all sizes a thorough, reliable, and trustworthy way to create microservices. Go is a fantastic general-purpose language, but microservices need some specialized assistance. As a result, the kit framework offers infrastructure integration, system observability, and Remote Procedure Call (RPC) safety. Golang is a first-class language for creating microservices in any organization thanks to its composition of numerous closely related packages that together form an opinionated framework for building substantial Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs).It was created with interoperability in mind, and developers are free to select the platforms, databases, components, and architectural styles that best suit their needs. The disadvantage of using go-kit is that it has a high overhead for adding API to the service because of how heavily it relies on interfaces. Documentation Link: https://github.com/go-kit/kit

At first I was confused but this GitHub user/org is completely different from the massively popular go-kit/kit https://github.com/go-kit/kit

Go Micro: a standard library for distributed systems development
https://github.com/go-kit/kit#related-projects
go-micro seems like it does a bit too much, like service discovery and balancing within the framework when that's likely better handled by an Envoy/Istio.
-
Real World Micro Services
I think the more interesting aspect of this is the framework being used: https://github.com/micro/micro
I haven't dug into it at all yet, but at a glance it looks like it's aiming to do something similar to what Go kit (https://gokit.io/) or Finagle (https://twitter.github.io/finagle/) does, where it gives you a nice abstraction for defining your "service" and then handles all the supplementary aspects (service discovery, serialization, retry/circuit breaker logic, rate limiting, hooks for logging, tracing, and metrics, etc) so you don't have to build those from scratch every time.
I don't know if any of those other frameworks could really be considered very "successful" outside the original organizations they were built for (it seems like the industry has bet more on service meshes and API gateway products), but I'd probably be more inclined to start with one of them than making a new framework.
