Templ: A language for writing HTML user interfaces in Go
Standard Go templating seems really lacking if you come from something like Jinja. Even with libraries like https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/ (used e.g. for Helm templating) it feels hard to use.

Library to convert HTML to pdf in Golang
I'd highly recommend tossing in the sprig library and depending on how you break up your templates, maybe creating a custom "include" helper instead of using the built in define/template helpers. The advantage of this is that if each template is capable of rendering itself independently, you can potentially render all of your templates in parallel.

Jsonnet – The Data Templating Language
The discoverability of golang templates is terrible, IMHO, since it's missing a "dir(locals())" equivalent and every execution environment gets to make its own rules about what pipelines/functions are exposed
Look at helm as an example: https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/function_list/ is some of them, https://helm.sh/docs/chart_template_guide/accessing_files/#p... are some others, but they also glued in some version of https://masterminds.github.io/sprig/ So, short of (a) knowing that's the case (b) having 3+ bookmarks in your favorite browser to refer to those reference pages, how would anyone know what pipelines are available?
Separately, I dooooo nooooooot understand why every joker has to invent their own new thing when we have like 50 or so templating languages already. Golang may be an outlier in that competition due to the Google Promotion Packet Effect(tm) but how they came up with `{{ range }}{{ end }}` as sane syntax is some true facepalm, to say nothing of the same landmine that ansible stepped on by not switching jinja2's default characters: `{{` is not _yaml safe_

Charm: a new language in, with, and for Go
You mentioned something about PHP. We also already have a templating language in the standard library that can be extended (commonly done with sprig).

Is there something similar to plopjs in Go? (generate files based on configuration from templates)
Plopjs looks interesting and is probably not too hard to write for yourself in Go. You could add something like sprig for some useful template functions.

Kyoto – Build Front End with Golang
They may refer to the definitive shortage of built-in functions. The template engine itself only provides the bare minimum. That's usually not a problem because of template function libraries like https://github.com/Masterminds/sprig

13 Best Practices for using Helm
Helm supports over 60 functions that can be used inside templates. The functions are defined in the Go template language and Sprig template library. Functions in template files significantly simplify Helm operations.
