Libraries for CLI and console applications
I’ve used multiple libraries over the last two years but less is more and go-arg feels like something that would be in the stdlib: https://github.com/alexflint/go-arg

Recommended framework/library for creating cli apps in go?
I personally swear by the go-arg package, as i prefer its library-not-framework approach.

Autenticação com Golang e AWS Cognito
Primeiro vamos carregar nossas envs com o pacote godotenv, depois iniciamos nosso cognito client, passando o COGNITO_CLIENT_ID, que pegamos anteriormente, depois iniciamos o gin e criamos um server, isso é o suficiente.

Tools besides Go for a newbie
IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

There is already a more complete, safer and neatly written godotenv alternative. It may be taken as an educational inspiration for next attempts.

I need some help setting up variables for the sake of my sanity
Chances are you are going to set them in you real server, and most likely you will going to use Linux for that. So for local development create a .env file with those in there. And at the start of you program, load them. You can use https://github.com/joho/godotenv Don’t share that file of course, and don’t put it in git.
