Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Tcl Ported to Go
Is "ported" the right term here? It know the repo's README says "CGo-free port", but this is the C version of TCL transpiled from C to Go (see the ~13MB .go files per platform in the "lib" directory). Which is a very cool idea, and the author has done the same thing with SQLite, to avoid CGo (https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite).
Here's a link to his C to Go translator: https://gitlab.com/cznic/ccgo

Go performance from version 1.2 to 1.18
Totally agreed: almost all users (me/GoAWK included) want performance and don't care nearly as much about simplicity under the hood. Simplicity of implementation is of value for educational purposes, but we could easily have a small, simple 3rd party package for that. Go's regexp package is kinda too complex for a simple educational demonstration and too simple to be fast. :-)
I actually tried BurntSushi's https://github.com/BurntSushi/rure-go (bindings to Rust's regex engine) with GoAWK and it made regex handling 4-5x as fast for many regexes, despite the CGo overhead. However, rure-go (and CGo in general) is a bit painful to build, so I'm not going to use that. Maybe I'll create a branch for speed freaks who want it.
I've also thought of using https://gitlab.com/cznic/ccgo to convert Mawk's fast regex engine to Go source and see how that performs. Maybe on the next rainy day...

CGo-free SQLite adds windows/amd64 support
FYI it uses facility to translate C to go (https://gitlab.com/cznic/ccgo), there is a similar project does the same thing (https://github.com/elliotchance/c2go).

We Went All in on Sqlc/Pgx for Postgres and Go
It's not really pure go, it's transpiled using https://gitlab.com/cznic/ccgo
Just about all the code looks like this:
// Call this routine to record the fact that an OOM (out-of-memory) error

CXGO: C to Go Translator written entirely in Go
It would be interesting to read a comparison against https://gitlab.com/cznic/ccgo
SQLBoiler

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.

Comparing database/sql, GORM, sqlx, and sqlc
Moved all my projects to https://github.com/volatiletech/sqlboiler.

Are there any decent ORMs in Golang?

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.
