Is there a framework out for go that rivals Laravel as far as out of the box features and tools?
Hit me up if you have a longer time horizon and want to give https://github.com/livebud/bud a shot!
There is https://gobuffalo.io/ and there is https://github.com/livebud/bud. Both are interesting approaches, but sadly, without real business interest from the community. See, 90% of what makes Laravel Laravel (or Rails Rails) is business adoption. And, as you will sadly find out, the business adoption for traditional Web applications is exactly zero. If you don't want to make the same mistake as I did, and spend 3 years of your life searching for it, do as the others advised - just use the tools and frameworks that have already been built to solve the problem you need.

Purego – A library for calling C functions from Go without Cgo
Awesome!
This would be such a game-changer for server-side rendering Javascript in Go with V8.
I'd love to integrate this into Bud[1].

Best front-end stack for Golang backend
I've also been seeing updates on this project, which is kind of preferring Svelte https://github.com/livebud/bud

How to develop a Web app in go
https://github.com/livebud/bud - similar idea, but uses Svelte (a JS framework) to do the front end stuff. It’s smart enough to render the JS stuff on the server when possible, so you end up with the best of both worlds.

Anyone experienced in golang ssr?
https://github.com/livebud/bud this framework is achieving SSR in go. Not Vue specifically last I saw, but maybe you can draw inspiration from what they did https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/uoxocj/bud_the_fullstack_web_framework_for_go_developers/i8ke92h/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

I hate API development "as an indie dev"
It's not that I am not able to develop APIs, but being an indie dev makes me seek proper full-stack frameworks, so I have been seeking some frameworks, Rails is one of them. I have pretty confidently learnt Rails 7. But another GoLang framework popped up, which is Bud (aka LiveBud GoLang).

Matt Mueller: Building Modern Web Applications Faster With Bud
Ah cool! I'd like to support Vue through plugins rather than bake it in. There's an open discussion here on Vue support: https://github.com/livebud/bud/discussions/39

Concurrency Control in Go with Ent ORM and MySQL
In this article, we'll delve into the world of concurrency control in Go, specifically focusing on the optimistic locking approach. We'll explore its implementation using Ent ORM to illustrate how to manage data consistency when multiple users interact with the same resource. Keep in mind that this example serves as a simplified illustration, and real-world booking systems involve a many of additional complexities. However, the core concepts presented here provide a solid foundation for understanding optimistic locking in Go applications. Feel free to explore the complete source code in my GitHub repository for a more in-depth look at the implementation.

Go ORMs Compared
ent is a fairly recent ORM that uses a code-first approach where you define your schema in Go code. Ent is popular thanks to its ability to handle complex data models and relationships elegantly. It's statically typed, which can help catch errors at compile time. However, the learning curve might be steeper compared to more straightforward ORMs like GORM. It's a good fit for applications where complex data models and type safety are priorities.

Stop using entgo...please
If you found this article, than you are probably similar to how I was a few months ago. I started a project in Go that required a SQL backend and I wanted to use any tool that would help me build this backend quickly. I stumbled upon entgo (an ORM for Go) and decided to give it a try.
The auto migration feature of module seems to have issues processing fields with date/time values. After I spent hours debugging I reached out to their community to see if anyone had this issue. I received no response in their Discord (does not seem very active) and I only received one response on a Github issue I posted on the topic (after over a month of the issue being posted).

Comparing database/sql, GORM, sqlx, and sqlc
Personally, I've used a mix of these tools: GORM, Pop, and ent. I think so far, https://entgo.io/ has to be my favorite. I found the learning curve to be pretty straightforward and like how you can represent fairly complex relationships because of the data model and code generation capabilities they have. Also, automatic migrations with a choice to generate migration files. Although, I don't think there's as big of a community around this tooling.

Entkit golang DDD construction platform based on entgo framework
https://github.com/entkit/entkit is an open-source framework built using Go programming language (with entgo) that provides a set of tools to build scalable, secure, and composable software applications. The framework follows the Domain-driven Design (DDD) approach and provides features like code generation, database integration, and business object models to make the software development process faster and more organized.
