gopherjs VS sqlx

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

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

Why not use https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs with jMonkeyEngine as-is?

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.

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

Maybe this is were https://github.com/gopherjs/gopherjs will truly shine? Has anyone ever seen Go used for this?

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.

We've always used https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx which is just the standard package + mapping to/from structs.

You can use this https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx

I will be using sqlx to execute queries and map columns to struct fields and vice versa, sqlx is a library which provides a set of extensions on go's standard database/sql library.

sqlx + squirrel ftw

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.

This is the same situation I saw 20 years ago. Back then, all the managers were pushing development in Oracle tools. Those managers grew up on Oracle and Java was too modern for them. Now the situation is similar. Managers used to do things in Java and now they are still pushing Java. In fact, today Java brings nothing but problems. When I see a new project starting on Java it is always some big desperation. For a comparison of Java and Go, just look at the documentation for SQL. For go: https://pkg.go.dev/database/sql (31 pages) and maybe https://jmoiron.github.io/sqlx/ (12 pages). In Java only one class is 59 pages (https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/sql/ResultSet.html) and look how many of those documents there are: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/13/docs/api/java.sql/java/sql/package-summary.html and on top of that we have javax.sql - https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/package-summary.html And even then you use Hibernate for example, where the documentation has 11 manuals and of those the User Guide has 353 pages - https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/6.2/userguide/html\_single/Hibernate\_User\_Guide.html
