golive VS yaegi

1) change html content on the fly based on user input without redirects. I guess I found something relevant here to help me out, but I haven't tested any of it yet and keeping my options open for now. I know javascript frameworks are the usual go-to for that stuff, but I'd like to play around with Go before diving into another language.

I stumbled on two options: - GoLive (similar to Phoenix LiveViews) - Vugu (similar to Vue)

I built it because I love building highly interactive web pages, but the current state of JavaScript leaves me cold. I got really excited when I saw what Phoenix was doing with LiveView and thought I could see the light at the end of the tunnel. There are already a couple of projects also inspired by LiveView (GoLive, live), but I had my own vision that I wanted to realise.

As for LiveView ports or code inspired by LiveView in Go there is also https://github.com/brendonmatos/golive but I haven't had the chance to use either yet. If either are more or less a direct port (as much as they can be given language constraints) then I'd bet on them over hotwire. The Elixir community has already worked through most of the hard problems hotwire will encounter down the road with more use.

I'd like to suggest GoLive (https://github.com/brendonmatos/golive). It's a new project with an owner that is very open to pull requests. I've been sending PRs and it's a fun project to work on. What is GoLive:

Yes. There are long standing feature requests for (e.g.) the reflect package that simply don't get done because they'd break this assumption and/or force further indirection in hot paths to support "no code generation at runtime, ever".

Packages like Yaegi (that offers an interpreted Go REPL) have "know limitations, won't be addressed" also because of these assumptions.

There is always https://github.com/traefik/yaegi - a Go interpreter written to make it easy to write plugins.

I think https://github.com/traefik/yaegi comes as close as using the python interpreter in you CLI, but for Go

There's a go interpreter: https://github.com/traefik/yaegi It could run programs without compiling them, but there're some limitations.

I'd recommend looking into a different approach for plugins such as hashicorp/go-plugin (which uses multiple process PIDs and RPC communication between them) or traefik/yaegi (which implements a Go-compatible scripting language that can be interpreted at runtime and which still supports most Go modules).

Why do we need a language like Rust when we have Rust. Why not just create a Rust interpreter. (There's such an interpreter for Go, BTW, https://github.com/traefik/yaegi )

A cool solution I saw was Traefik's yaegi module. They basically created an interpreted scripting language with Go compatible syntax (turning Go into an interpreted, not compiled, language). I haven't tried this but it sounds like it brings the better parts of dynamic languages like Python's plugin support to Go - plugin writers can still write "Go" code, which can load dynamically.
