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.

Visualizing Diffs The Myers difference algorithm
This made me think of a couple other interesting things:
1. you can change which algorithm is used in git diff as multiple are supported

2. Google has an edit graph implementation in Go in the cmp package

How do you do DB preparation in e2e tests?
Assertion libraries that people seem to love: - testify (my favorite) - go-cmp is a more barebones library - gotest.tools -- I have never used this but some swear by it

alecthomas/assert: A minimalist type-safe drop-in replacement for testify/require
it uses https://github.com/google/go-cmp instead of reflect.DeepEqual
-
What annoys you about Go?
When I use functional arguments, I either prefix all of the options with the same prefix or put them in a dedicated package (like cmpopts) to help the IDE.

What are your favorite packages to use?
oklog/ulid to generate IDs. coreos/go-oidc for validating JWTs I get from auth. google/go-cmp for comparing structs in tests (unless the project is already using Testify). spf13/pflag because life's too short for Go's flag handling. getkin/kin-openapi for validating reqests/responses against my OpenAPI spec (in tests).

Go Package for Equality: github.com/google/go-cmp
One thing to keep in mind about reflect.DeepEqual is because of the way it is implemented you could get positive results when the values are not actually the same, see this comment for reference.

Building RESTful API with Hexagonal Architecture in Go
It uses Gin as the HTTP framework and PostgreSQL as the database with pgx as the driver and Squirrel as the query builder. It also utilizes Redis as the caching layer with go-redis as the client.

how to avoid writing dreadful SQL statements
I have written about this before, and my thoughts always settle on using a query builder. I've built a simple one, which works for what I need, but there are more feature complete ones out there such as squirrel. I've also written about how you can implement a simple CRUD library for database interactions using generics and query building to have that nice middle-ground between an ORM and query building.
-
How do I enable filters for the user without writing redundant SQL?
Now for the dynamic queries you have to be really careful to prevent SQL injections, there are bunch of different ways to do it but I typically recommend using a package such as squirrel that lets you do this easily, you use it to generate the plain SQL you need (and then use sqlx, database/sql, pgx or whatever you prefer) or use it directly querying the database directly.

Best sqlc alternative for dynamic queries?
Here are 2 options for you * https://github.com/huandu/go-sqlbuilder * https://github.com/Masterminds/squirrel

Golang RESTAPI boilerplate repository
https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/vq98ud/what_sql_library_are_you_using/ Jet havn't used but is one that looks promising! Otherwise I'm one of the purests, db/sql and https://github.com/Masterminds/squirrel
-
Why is Raw SQL preferred over ORM in go?
I think he means an sql builder like squirrel. This allows dynamic queries, but more important you can reuse function that build a where clause so you can get a count and query with that.
-
Does Go, has something similar to Laravel eloquent (ORM) ?
I'd rather suggest the use of tools more aligned with the core concepts of the language such as sqlx, which is an extension of the database/sql standard library. It allows you to use models/structs to map your tables but you have more control over the SQL statements you use to perform queries and the like. You can combine sqlx with Squirrel to build queries from composable parts.
-
Are there any decent ORMs in Golang?
But using a query builder, something like squirrel or (plug) bqb, allows you to actually write SQL (or something close to it) when you need it but also handles the nasty string building bits. Though I agree that ORMs are not always bad, especially for small projects with well-defined scope.
-
GORM
Plug for bqb as a query builder, but there's also squirrel which works pretty well too.
