My Love Letter to Rails (and Ruby) – Or, Why RoR Isn't Dead Yet
You should probably stop because this is not a Go-way. And you wan't find anything with "batteries" other than https://github.com/gobuffalo/buffalo and https://github.com/beego/beego
Haven't see anyone actually using them in production though.

Goravel, Web framework inspired from Laravel in Golang
No default. There is Buffalo which is modeled after Rails, haven't used it in anger though.

Looking to learn more of Go, does it require third party libraries like Spring/ASP.NET, etc?
In general, no. But if you do seek for one, I think https://gobuffalo.io is very good.

Is there a framework out for go that rivals Laravel as far as out of the box features and tools?
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.

Does Golang has any framework like Springboot?
If you like Ruby on Rails, there is Buffalo.

Building web-based SaaS with Go as a solo entrepreneur. What should I be aware of?
Buffalo is currently built on Gorilla which complicates building a business on it right now as Gorilla has shifted to public archive since it has no maintainer. https://github.com/gobuffalo/buffalo/issues/2360

Who moved my error codes? Adding error types to your GoLang GraphQL Server
GraphQL’s spec, as it turns out, does not specify how servers should handle internal errors at all, leaving it entirely to the choice of the frameworks’ creators. Take for example our GoLang GraphQL framework of choice - gqlgen. It makes no distinction between intentional and unexpected errors: all errors are returned as-is to the client within the error message. Internal errors, which often contain sensitive information like network details and internal URIs, would leak to clients easily if not caught manually by the programmer.

“Go is hard to justify unless at massive scale”
Better look into this one: https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen for GraphQL powered by Go. It's spec first approach and requires the least boilerplate code to write. It also incorporates seamlessly with Apollo Federation.

Go with PHP
I left PHP for Go.
- with http://sqlc.dev I don't have to write ORM or model code anymore.
- with http://goa.design I can have well-documented API's that any team can generate a client for in any language. It also generates the HTTP JSON and gRPC servers for me so I can focus on my logic.
- with https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen I can define GraphQL revolvers that play well with sqlc (any RDBMS) or I can use a key-value store.
- speaking of key-value stores, Go allows them to be embedded! Even SQLite now has the https://litestream.io/ project to make it super simple to use a durable, always backed-up SQLite database even in a serverless context.
Go is faster, uses less memory, and has really-well designed stdlib without all the bugs I used to face trying to use the PHP stdlib.

Libraries you use most of your projects?
In addition to the ones you mentioned, I also always use: + sqlc - Compile SQL to type-safe code + gqlgen - generate GraphQL server from schema + oapi-codegen - Go client and server boilerplate from OpenAPI 3 specifications + pester - Go http calls with retries and backoff + backoff - exponential backoff algorithm in Go

Ent: An Entity Framework for Go
I have no experience in Django but in Ent with GraphQL.
Ent is not a full-featured web framework so you need to implement many of features by your own or use other libraries (e.g. http server and session management).
If you are only looking for ORM + GraphQL then I highly recommend trying Entgql, an Ent extension for GraphQL with Gqlgen library [1]. Once you define an ORM schema, it will generate GraphQL Query for Relay server. Still you need to implement GraphQL Mutations by your own but at least it will create Input types for you (both for Create/Update).

Best packages?
gqlgen for GraphQL services. It's well documented and maintained.

Decent examples querying models from Postgres
For me sqlc work wonders. If you are developing a user facing api and are fine to go with graphql, with gqlgen you can even autobind (search the page for @goModel) the models that sqlc generates from your queries. A glorious match
