. Web backend (with various frameworks available) . Web Assembly (one of them is vugu framework) . Microservices (some frameworks: Go Micro, Go Kit, Gizmo, Kite) . Fragments services (Term mentioned by @jeffotoni in a microservices discussion group) . Lambdas (FaaS example) . Client Server . Terminal applications (using the tview lib) . IoT (some frameworks) . Bots (some here) . Client Applications using Web technology . Desktop using Qt+QML, Native Win Lib (example Qt, Qt widgets, Qml) . Network Applications . Protocol applications . REST Applications . SOAP Applications . GraphQL Applications . RPC Applications . TCP Applications . gRPC Applications . WebSocket Applications . GopherJS (compiles Go to JavaScript)

To implement service discovery in our GoLang microservice we will use GoKit, a toolkit for microservices that provides support to auth, log, service discovery, tracing and more. For this starter code the mod already installed, you can skip this step

My company uses go-kit

For reference my company Go projects are built with (go-kit)[https://gokit.io/] design patterns.

5. kit. The kit framework is a programming toolkit for building robust, reliable, and maintainable microservices in Golang. It is a collection of packages and best practices that offer businesses of all sizes a thorough, reliable, and trustworthy way to create microservices. Go is a fantastic general-purpose language, but microservices need some specialized assistance. As a result, the kit framework offers infrastructure integration, system observability, and Remote Procedure Call (RPC) safety. Golang is a first-class language for creating microservices in any organization thanks to its composition of numerous closely related packages that together form an opinionated framework for building substantial Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs).It was created with interoperability in mind, and developers are free to select the platforms, databases, components, and architectural styles that best suit their needs. The disadvantage of using go-kit is that it has a high overhead for adding API to the service because of how heavily it relies on interfaces. Documentation Link: https://github.com/go-kit/kit

At first I was confused but this GitHub user/org is completely different from the massively popular go-kit/kit https://github.com/go-kit/kit

go-micro seems like it does a bit too much, like service discovery and balancing within the framework when that's likely better handled by an Envoy/Istio.

I think the more interesting aspect of this is the framework being used: https://github.com/micro/micro

I haven't dug into it at all yet, but at a glance it looks like it's aiming to do something similar to what Go kit (https://gokit.io/) or Finagle (https://twitter.github.io/finagle/) does, where it gives you a nice abstraction for defining your "service" and then handles all the supplementary aspects (service discovery, serialization, retry/circuit breaker logic, rate limiting, hooks for logging, tracing, and metrics, etc) so you don't have to build those from scratch every time.

I don't know if any of those other frameworks could really be considered very "successful" outside the original organizations they were built for (it seems like the industry has bet more on service meshes and API gateway products), but I'd probably be more inclined to start with one of them than making a new framework.

My main authoring tool is then Emacs Markdown Mode (https://jblevins.org/projects/markdown-mode/). For data entry, it comes with some bells and whistles similar to org-mode, like C-c C-l for inserting links etc.

I seldom export my notes for external usage, but if it is the case, I use lowdown (https://kristaps.bsd.lv/lowdown/) which also comes with some nice output targets (among the more unusual are Groff and Terminal). Of cource pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does a very good job here, too.

This is one of those things that the ever-amazing pandoc (https://pandoc.org/) does very well, on top of supporting virtually every other document format.

Folks feel the same way about Markdown versus LaTeX: why use something significantly more complicated where a looser, human-readable grammar works better?

For any other situations, I use https://pandoc.org/, or, generate a Word doc scriptomatically.

Congrats on the launch, I guess, but there are so many free options that I can't think of a situation where paying $0.25 per document would be justified...? Just to name a few:

Back in the days, I used to use XSL-FO [0] and it was okay. It was not very precise but it rarely if ever broke, and was perfectly integrated with an XML/XSLT solution. Yeah, this was a long time ago.

Last month I used html-to-pdfmake [1] and it's also not very precise and more fragile, but very efficient and fast.

Yet another approach would be to pro grammatically generate .rtf files (for example) and use Pandoc [2] to produce PDFs (I have not tried this in production but don't see why it wouldn't work).

Others have mentioned static site generators. I like Hakyll [1] because it can tightly integrate with Pandoc [2] and allows you to develop custom solutions if your needs ever grow.

Have you compared it with a conversion by pandoc (https://pandoc.org/)?

I have used it to kickstart a blogging project that I wish to come back to soon. The Lua inter-op for custom readers, writers and filters is great but I wish there was more editor integration and even perhaps an official IDE/editor with built-in debugging features (probably something already do-able with Emacs but I haven't checked). The only blocker for my project is no support for "ChunkedDoc" for Lua filters [1] which forces me to write more code and a complicated Makefile.
