    I've used https://github.com/flosch/pongo2 since it feels more dev friendly (like almost every other framework I've used). Check out https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go#template-engines for some others.

    Doesnā€™t it bother your that your templates arenā€™t really valid HTML? Because of the way html/template works, one isnā€™t really able to implement template inheritance properly. So you end up with opening and closing tags scattered around multiple files? You might want to look at Pongo2, which implements most of Djangoā€™s templating syntax (incl. inheritance) and is pretty stable: https://github.com/flosch/pongo2

    At least template-wise, I've developed pongo2 mimicking Django's template engine which I use myself for various projects. For the rest I usually stick with the standard library (net/http), golang-jwt, the Gorilla toolkit (note that it's been archived recently) and some software architecture patterns for middlewares, database abstraction, etc.

    Django uses Jinja templating engine. Something similar is available at https://github.com/flosch/pongo2 Now you just have to pick which router you want and which ORM or not-ORM.

    Yes, Go templating is quite hard. There was a feature request[1] to implement the Django/Jinja2-like Pongo2 template engine[2], but got rejected because it would have been a too big change.

    Yes, there is pongo2 [0] and my runner (basically a small Go software that runs the template engine) pongo2-runner [1].

    I'm not the author of the library (pongo2), but I'm using pongo2-runner to dynamically create config files out of environment variables, with custom logic. Super recommended.
