Python: Just Write SQL
We've always used https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx which is just the standard package + mapping to/from structs.

Golang equivalent of MyBatis/iBatis
You can use this https://github.com/jmoiron/sqlx

REST API with Go, Chi, MySQL and sqlx
I will be using sqlx to execute queries and map columns to struct fields and vice versa, sqlx is a library which provides a set of extensions on go's standard database/sql library.
- PHP to Golang

Best sqlc alternative for dynamic queries?
sqlx + squirrel ftw

Does Go, has something similar to Laravel eloquent (ORM) ?
I'd rather suggest the use of tools more aligned with the core concepts of the language such as sqlx, which is an extension of the database/sql standard library. It allows you to use models/structs to map your tables but you have more control over the SQL statements you use to perform queries and the like. You can combine sqlx with Squirrel to build queries from composable parts.

Tools besides Go for a newbie
IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

Where Is the Spring Framework for Go?
This is the same situation I saw 20 years ago. Back then, all the managers were pushing development in Oracle tools. Those managers grew up on Oracle and Java was too modern for them. Now the situation is similar. Managers used to do things in Java and now they are still pushing Java. In fact, today Java brings nothing but problems. When I see a new project starting on Java it is always some big desperation. For a comparison of Java and Go, just look at the documentation for SQL. For go: https://pkg.go.dev/database/sql (31 pages) and maybe https://jmoiron.github.io/sqlx/ (12 pages). In Java only one class is 59 pages (https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/sql/ResultSet.html) and look how many of those documents there are: https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/13/docs/api/java.sql/java/sql/package-summary.html and on top of that we have javax.sql - https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/sql/package-summary.html And even then you use Hibernate for example, where the documentation has 11 manuals and of those the User Guide has 353 pages - https://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/6.2/userguide/html\_single/Hibernate\_User\_Guide.html

Authentication system using Golang and Sveltekit - Initialization and setup
It's some sort of logging system well explained by Alex Edwards in Let’s Go Further. As stated, we could have used logrus or any other popular logging system in Go.

Option 2, please. You may not have been around for the logrus debacle, but it was a giant pain.

Best Logging Library for Golang
For choosing the candidates for the poll, I didn't do any thorough research. I was looking for a library to use in my project at work, and I ended up at sirupsen/logrus which was already being used by one of the dependencies in that project.

Follow up to previous post: I contributed to an open source project outside working hours despite being asked not to. I was fired. No legal action.
I contribute to OSS as part of my job on the regular. The company is good about contributing upstream, signing CLAs, and all that. We still work against private forks for two main reasons: 1. Some changes that we need are not accepted by maintainers based on philosophical or architectural reasons that we can’t otherwise work around. You’re beholden to then unless you publicly fork the repo which has other legal/PR overhead for the company and OSS political implications. 2. Maintainers in the past have taken down repos, renamed repos, or changed the licensing on repos that have left us in a lurch. We always build against our own private forks because we need predictability and can’t be beholden to some other party for business continuity. We sync them down from the public upstream at our leisure.

Sourcehut will blacklist the Go module mirror
If they change the case on their username on the other hand, the Go ecosystem explodes: https://github.com/sirupsen/logrus/issues/570#issuecomment-3...

Lies we tell ourselves to keep using Golang
Like, for example, some projects importing logrus with a capital L and some with a lowercase L, and go modules having no way to reconcile the two: https://github.com/sirupsen/logrus/issues/553

go-coffeeshop - A practical coffee shop application event-driven microservices built with Golang
Ugh. Wish people would stop using logrus. It’s in maintenance mode and slow, especially its stack tracing.
