GJSON
Gin
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.

Rob Pike: Gobs of data (2011)
Someone made a benchmark of serialization libraries in go [1], and I was surprised to see gobs is one of the slowest ones, specially for decoding. I suspect part of the reason is that the API doesn't not allow reusing decoders [2]. From my explorations it seems like both JSON [3], message-pack [4] and CBOR [5] are better alternatives.
By the way, in Go there are a like a million JSON encoders because a lot of things in the std library are not really coded for maximum performance but more for easy of usage, it seems. Perhaps this is the right balance for certain things (ex: the http library, see [6]).
There are also a bunch of libraries that allow you to modify a JSON file "in place", without having to fully deserialize into structs (ex: GJSON/SJSON [7] [8]). This sounds very convenient and more efficient that fully de/serializing if we just need to change the data a little.

Jj: JSON Stream Editor
```
I don't think there is a way to sort an array, though. However, there is an option to have keys sorted. Personally, I don't think there is much annoyance in that. One could just pipe `jj` output to `sort | uniq -c`.

Mapping json fields in api calls to a struct to store them in a database or cache
If the fields you need are just a small subset of the whole json, maybe https://github.com/tidwall/gjson might be of use to read only those (using jsonpath) without needing to create complete corresponding structs.

Which CPU to buy based on profiling
Thank you for the reminder, it's never too much of it :) Didn't say it, but the code was pprof-iled many times and i can really say it's well optimized. I use own libraries with on-the-fly equations (sums, avgs, emas, stds, ...) wherever possible and also made custom json parser as json messages are in fixed format, so the parser is about 10x faster than gjson. I optimized it to the point that I avoided using maps, and rather iterate via slice where ever possible.

Any way to convert unknown/dynamic json to generic object structure
https://github.com/tidwall/gjson is a relatively sensible library if this is something you need to deal with and the structure is actually unknowable.
- Need help with getting the grandchild in nested JSON
- Double down on python or learn Go
- Ad hoc JSON parsing

How to Build and Document a Go REST API with Gin and Go-Swagger
Now let’s define the functions that will be called whenever a request hits our API. All the functions will be referencing the context provided by the Gin web framework. Paste the following code below the sample slice we just added to api.go:

Password-less Login in Go from Scratch
We will be using Gorilla Mux. As per their last update, they have a new group of maintainers, and their repos have shown activity to confirm that. The tutorial can be easily replicated in any other framework or library as well. So, while we will be using Gorilla Mux, you can try to replicate it in Gin or Fiber as well.

Uploading and Serving Images from MongoDB in Golang
In this blog, we will delve into the fascinating realm of handling images in a Golang application, leveraging the power of the Gin framework for RESTful API development, MongoDB as a robust NoSQL database, and the mongo-driver library for seamless interaction with MongoDB. To store images efficiently, we'll explore the intricacies of GridFS, a specification within MongoDB for storing large files as separate chunks.
