    I'm not sure if I'm going to stop supporting anything outside of int32 and float64 as that was one of my biggest frustrations when using graphql-go.
  • State of GraphQL packages in Go?

    I have always preferred https://github.com/graph-gophers/graphql-go. I still write my definitions in .graphql files and pese them with the library. Then you can easily write resolvers or just return model objects if they match the definitions.
  • 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 :)
