learn-go-with-tests VS GORM

There are not particularly bad parts. Overall the book is well written and organized. Moreover, Since it is also an open-source material, many readers have contributed to the contents of the book(including a few of mine :)). I hope there are more books like this for other languages such as Rust or Python.

i.e using this free open source book Learn Gol with Tests

I really like Learn Go with tests. Not only is it a neat resource for learning Go, but it's great for getting a feeling for TDD.

You can try viewing it on github instead https://github.com/quii/learn-go-with-tests/blob/main/scaling-acceptance-tests.md

If you already know php and want to get professional in go, i suggest you take a look at https://github.com/quii/learn-go-with-tests

Hi, author here.

The project is open-source (https://github.com/quii/learn-go-with-tests) so there's a few options available to you.

In releases, you'll find PDFs and epubs, I'm pretty sure most epub readers will let you use a dark mode. Or you can just read the markdown files on GitHub, which also supports it.

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.

Since most of these APIs will be simple CRUD (Create/Read/Update/Delete) endpoints, let's build this service using GORM, an ORM library that makes building CRUD endpoints really simple.

After successfully configuring the application, it's time to delve into integrating the data layer. For this purpose, I will utilize gorm, a powerful SQL ORM that facilitates rapid development of the data layer using model structs.

For basic INSERT ... VALUES ... or SELECT ... WHERE ... JOIN ..., use a library such as GORM. For INSERT .... SELECT ... statements where one combines two round trips (SELECT and INSERT) into one, ORMs have a hard time performing this query. Particularly when you start doing joins. Joins are the heart of Relational database theory (they denote relationships). So get to know what an INNER, LEFT, RIGHT and OUTER join is and why you would use them. Also learn INSERT ... SELECT ...

I have never hated gorm and it serves me well. However I tend to feed it raw SQL very often.
