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.

The Tech Stack of a Cloud Computing Startup
I've been writing Go for over 6 years, so picking Go as our main backend language was a no brainer, especially considering the great integrations into the general infra space. Most infra code is go, so that helps a lot. As a framework we use Go-Gin, but honestly we could also just use the native http lib. We also have a tiny part of code in C for some cheeky eBPF stuff we got running. YES, we could write that in Rust, but with eBPF the benefits are negligible and C was the first language I learned as a kid:)
