Sveltekit with golang
Yeah. It seems like Bud is the best option I have to get what I want: https://github.com/livebud/bud/

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!

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

Does Go have an equivalent to Python's Flask and Django?
See https://github.com/livebud/bud to learn more.

Python Web Framework: Converting Svelte Code into HTML, CSS and JS with Python
Just to clarify: Fymo is taking the same approach as Bud. See: https://github.com/livebud/bud/discussions/248 for details 🙂
-
Converting Svelte Code into HTML, CSS and JS with Python
An open-source GoLang project also took the same approach, livebud/bud.
-
Modern Monolith Framework for Solo Developers?
I know how to create APIs. I actually don't wanna do an API link with the front end. You can check a framework built in GoLang, livebud/bud in Github. Seeking something like that, 'cause the project is still being developed.

Move on to ESM-Only
And yes I know that Grafana has a fork called Sobek that has ESM support, but it is tailored for k6 and they don't have plans for making it easier to use. [2]

TrailBase: Fast & Open FireBase alternative
The benchmark sets up a custom HTTP endpoint /fibonacci?n= using the same slow recursive Fibonacci implementation for both, PocketBase and TrailBase. This is meant as a proxy for a computationally heavy workload to primarily benchmark the performance of the underlying JavaScript engines: goja for PocketBase and V8 for TrailBase. In other words, the impact of any overhead within PocketBase or TrailBase is diminished by the time it takes to compute fibonacci(N) for sufficiently large N.

Running a Javascript VM in Golang: Data Transforms via User Scripts
We will be using the goja library, a JavaScript VM written in Go, to execute JavaScript code. This setup allows developers to provide custom transformation logic for http payloads and headers.

Apparently "not depending on Node or V8" means depending on some random Go JS engine instead.
