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.

How to use migrations with Golang
Go doesn't support migrations natively for that propuso we can use the popular golang-migrate package also if you use an ORM like GORM you can use it for that.

Toasty, an Async ORM for Rust
I never understood why people are so stubborn about hating on orm.
For example I'm familiar with https://gorm.io and it does save me a lot of time and useless boilerplate.
And guess what, if I ever need to make a complex query, I also happen to know SQL, and I'm just going to make a "raw" query https://gorm.io/docs/sql_builder.html#Raw-SQL and be done with it.
It's not all that hard.

How to handle migrations in Golang
There are ORMs like gorm that supports some kind of documentation with files, but they mainly focus on converting the database to "things" in the code to be used by the ORM, and not as documentation only/documentation-first.

Go ORMs Compared
GORM is a comprehensive ORM tool in Go, offering a code-first approach which allows defining database schemas using struct tags in Go. It's known for its developer-friendly nature, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced users. GORM supports a variety of SQL databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite. It's designed to be flexible, allowing developers to drop down to raw SQL when necessary. However, it's important to be cautious about its performance implications in large-scale applications.

Show HN: Generate type-safe code for SQL queries in any language
sqlc (https://sqlc.dev/) is amazing, but I needed to use it in several unsupported languages. So instead of creating a plugin for each of those languages, I created a generic one, which is based on go templates.

Some Go web dev notes
I really wanted to like sqlc, but it had some major limitations and minor annoyances last time I tried it a few months ago. You might want to go through its list of issues[1] before adopting it.
Things like no support for dynamic queries[2], one-to-many relationships[3], embedded CTEs[4], composite types[5], etc.
It might work fine if you only have simple needs, but if you ever want to do something slightly sophisticated, you'll have to fallback to the manual approach. It's partly understandable, though. It cannot realistically support every feature of every DBMS, and it's explicitly not an ORM. But I still decided to stick to the manual approach for everything, instead of wondering whether something is or isn't supported by sqlc.

Sqlc: Compile SQL to type-safe code
I missed this too. However, I've found you can work around it pretty easily with clauses like CASE WHEN @field != "" THEN column = @field ELSE true END.
Example from the sqlc creator (https://github.com/sqlc-dev/sqlc/discussions/364#discussionc...):
-- name: FilterFoo :many

At 50 Years Old, Is SQL Becoming a Niche Skill?
LOL...
And then there is Golang. SQLC ( https://sqlc.dev ) becomes a source of truth not a sink... mix in some yaml and you have your json tags and validation mixed in.
Candidly good engineers are still using SQL...

>> Also, I can think of a number of json schemas that are impossible to replicate in Go's type system but work just fine in PHP.
Not at all. There are some that would be painful to write "by hand". An expansive and nested set of null fields would suck if I had to spell it all out...
https://sqlc.dev << changes everything. If you add in the YAML (and I hate yaml) you can get your JSON to DB mapping in there, as well as your validations (all output as struct tags).
Everything else that you're going to want (transforming inputs to/from json, logging, auth) is some pretty simple middleware.
