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.

Who moved my error codes? Adding error types to your GoLang GraphQL Server
GraphQL’s spec, as it turns out, does not specify how servers should handle internal errors at all, leaving it entirely to the choice of the frameworks’ creators. Take for example our GoLang GraphQL framework of choice - gqlgen. It makes no distinction between intentional and unexpected errors: all errors are returned as-is to the client within the error message. Internal errors, which often contain sensitive information like network details and internal URIs, would leak to clients easily if not caught manually by the programmer.

“Go is hard to justify unless at massive scale”
Better look into this one: https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen for GraphQL powered by Go. It's spec first approach and requires the least boilerplate code to write. It also incorporates seamlessly with Apollo Federation.

Go with PHP
I left PHP for Go.
- with http://sqlc.dev I don't have to write ORM or model code anymore.
- with http://goa.design I can have well-documented API's that any team can generate a client for in any language. It also generates the HTTP JSON and gRPC servers for me so I can focus on my logic.
- with https://github.com/99designs/gqlgen I can define GraphQL revolvers that play well with sqlc (any RDBMS) or I can use a key-value store.
- speaking of key-value stores, Go allows them to be embedded! Even SQLite now has the https://litestream.io/ project to make it super simple to use a durable, always backed-up SQLite database even in a serverless context.
Go is faster, uses less memory, and has really-well designed stdlib without all the bugs I used to face trying to use the PHP stdlib.

Libraries you use most of your projects?
In addition to the ones you mentioned, I also always use: + sqlc - Compile SQL to type-safe code + gqlgen - generate GraphQL server from schema + oapi-codegen - Go client and server boilerplate from OpenAPI 3 specifications + pester - Go http calls with retries and backoff + backoff - exponential backoff algorithm in Go

Ent: An Entity Framework for Go
I have no experience in Django but in Ent with GraphQL.
Ent is not a full-featured web framework so you need to implement many of features by your own or use other libraries (e.g. http server and session management).
If you are only looking for ORM + GraphQL then I highly recommend trying Entgql, an Ent extension for GraphQL with Gqlgen library [1]. Once you define an ORM schema, it will generate GraphQL Query for Relay server. Still you need to implement GraphQL Mutations by your own but at least it will create Input types for you (both for Create/Update).

Best packages?
gqlgen for GraphQL services. It's well documented and maintained.

Decent examples querying models from Postgres
For me sqlc work wonders. If you are developing a user facing api and are fine to go with graphql, with gqlgen you can even autobind (search the page for @goModel) the models that sqlc generates from your queries. A glorious match

Who moved my error codes? Adding error types to your GoLang GraphQL Server
And gqlgen is not alone in this. We found several more GraphQL frameworks that don’t take it upon themselves to address this problem. Widely used GraphQL server implementations, such as graphql-go/graphql and Python’s graphene, have the exact same gap of exposing messages of unexpected errors by default.

“Go is hard to justify unless at massive scale”
I have briefly looked into this and leaning towards GraphQL Go but don't yet know how it'll all come together. I'd prefer to stick with GraphQL if I can without it getting messy.

What's your experience with Go and GraphQL? Learning Go coming from Node
I've done a bit of research and have found 99designs/gqlgen and graphql-go/graphql but I would like to hear from your experience.

State of GraphQL packages in Go?
Dude to readability and friendliness being my biggest concern, I decided to use https://github.com/graphql-go/graphql. First drawback I noticed is that you don’t have the option for a playground baked into your server. I’ve been using hoppscotch for testing my operations as a workaround. Only real struggle I faced was dealing with nullable arguments, but I grew to realize that it’s more of a feature

Graphql with Golang help
Best resource for learning stuff is the docs imo. The most popular library currently for graphql in Go is this one GitHub graphql-go/graphql.

What is the best or one of the best go library to implement a server based on Graphql?
For my current project we use ent (https://entgo.it) + gqlgen and its a really nice combo. As well as the two other popular graphql libraries for go (https://github.com/graphql-go/graphql and https://github.com/graph-gophers/graphql-go), I’ve also kept my eyes on graphjin (https://github.com/dosco/graphjin) and thunder (https://github.com/samsarahq/thunder) but to me there is no reason to not use ent with gqlgen - it’s just so nice :)

Tried to Create Crud API Gin+Gorm+GraphQL(gqlgen)
gqlgen is GraphQL server library. There are some graphql libraries for golang such as graphql-go/graphql. But I selected gqlgen becuase I really like a point of generating code after I defined schema.
