  • Tools besides Go for a newbie
    36 projects | /r/golang | 26 Mar 2023
    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
  • GopherJS now supports Go 1.18! 🥳

    Release notes have all the details. For now it is just compatibility with the 1.18 standard library, but generics support is planned.

  • Is there a game engine in Go that can make an RTS game?

    Why not use https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs with jMonkeyEngine as-is?
  • my experience with blazor
    2 projects | dev.to | 18 Apr 2022
    When I wrote my first project in this year, I don't even planed to used blazor. But my childlike curiosity directed me on that path. I wanted to know, haw hard will be port game from desktop to web browser in .net. And I found out is not that hard. But I have experience with similar tools before. I used gopherjs and emscripten. Thanks to that I know what must to do, to communicate c# with javasrcipt. I made working blazor port pretty fast. Not only server side but webassembly to. Of curs create port for different platform always generate some problems. Most weird problem I have in blazor is how floating point number behave. I received in some cases NaN values. This problem I resolve adding value like 0.0001 in calculation.
  • Replace JS with Rust on front-end, possible? Advisable?
    7 projects | /r/rust | 17 Apr 2022
    If you're already building the backend in go and you don't like the prospect of coding in JavaScript it might be worth trying out https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs
  • Is it wise to build ecommerce website with golang?
    2 projects | /r/golang | 7 Jan 2022
    You can also write JS in Go with GopherJS, but if you don't fully understand the underlying JS webdev ecosystem, adding this extra layer of complexity is probably a really bad idea, at least at first.
  • Go Replaces Interface{} with 'Any'

    Ok, so if Go compiled to JS it would be a dynamic language?
