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.

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

Go ORMs Compared
SQLBoiler takes a database-first approach, generating Go code from your database schema. This means it creates highly optimized and custom-tailored code for your specific database schema. SQLBoiler is great for applications where the database schema is well-defined and changes infrequently. However, like sqlc, it requires regenerating the code when the database schema changes. It's well-suited for projects where performance is a key concern and the database design is stable.

Any mid sized / big open source code base in golang that makes use of SQL DBs?
My current ORM of choice is Bob [GitHub Link] which I created based on my experience using and maintaining SQLBoiler [GitHub Link].

GORM
You mean like ORMs? * sqlboiler: generates Go ORM using database schema.
-
ORM or no ORM (and which ones)?
SQL code generator (aka inspect a database or SQL files to generate data models). You have the option of using something like volatiletech/sqlboiler which looks at the a physical database and generates code based on the schema. Or SQLC which is an amazing and fast project.

Using Prisma Migrate with a Dockerized Postgres
After trying a half dozen migration engines for NodeJS, I was pleased to see Prisma and its excellent documentation. As a golang developer I am partial to SQLBoiler and its database-first approach, though perhaps this is a condition of our community where we want all the knobs. Prisma was code-first but still gave me enough control to feel confident.
-
Can anyone help me on how you are using golang with databases in production systems?
I use sqlboiler which generates an ORM from your database, and sql-migrate which is a tool for managing SQL migrations. Although you have to write your migrations in SQL, which IMHO is a plus.
