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.
- Where can I find well-written go code to learn from?

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.

Any resources on building a simple web app with Go without any frameworks?
Or go through this repo https://github.com/ardanlabs/service

GitHub - johnwarden/httperror: Golang package for returning errors instead of handling them directly.
I've seen this handler modification and wrapping pattern in Ardan Labs' service repository. https://github.com/ardanlabs/service/tree/master/foundation/web

REST API project structure
https://github.com/ardanlabs/service This is something which I really like and has taken into account a lot of engineering decisions.
- GitHub examples of Go that's written really well?
- Is "Let's go" and "Let's go further" worth it?

Python: Just Write SQL
We've always used https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx which is just the standard package + mapping to/from structs.

REST API with Go, Chi, MySQL and sqlx
I will be using sqlx to execute queries and map columns to struct fields and vice versa, sqlx is a library which provides a set of extensions on go's standard database/sql library.
- PHP to Golang

Best sqlc alternative for dynamic queries?
sqlx + squirrel ftw
-
Does Go, has something similar to Laravel eloquent (ORM) ?
I'd rather suggest the use of tools more aligned with the core concepts of the language such as sqlx, which is an extension of the database/sql standard library. It allows you to use models/structs to map your tables but you have more control over the SQL statements you use to perform queries and the like. You can combine sqlx with Squirrel to build queries from composable parts.

Tools besides Go for a newbie
IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

Where Is the Spring Framework for Go?
This is the same situation I saw 20 years ago. Back then, all the managers were pushing development in Oracle tools. Those managers grew up on Oracle and Java was too modern for them. Now the situation is similar. Managers used to do things in Java and now they are still pushing Java. In fact, today Java brings nothing but problems. When I see a new project starting on Java it is always some big desperation. For a comparison of Java and Go, just look at the documentation for SQL. For go: https://pkg.go.dev/database/sql (31 pages) and maybe https://jmoiron.github.io/sqlx/ (12 pages). In Java only one class is 59 pages (https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/sql/ResultSet.html) and look how many of those documents there are: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/13/docs/api/java.sql/java/sql/package-summary.html and on top of that we have javax.sql - https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/package-summary.html And even then you use Hibernate for example, where the documentation has 11 manuals and of those the User Guide has 353 pages - https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/6.2/userguide/html\_single/Hibernate\_User\_Guide.html
