Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Nanosecond timestamp collisions are common
Our Go ULID package has millisecond precision + monotonic random bytes for disambiguation while preserving ordering within the same millisecond. https://github.com/oklog/ulid
-
Type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs
There is no "tests".
There is just a single test. Which only tests the decoding of a single known value. No encoding test.
Go has infrastructure for benchmarking and fuzzing. Use it!
Also, you took code from https://github.com/oklog/ulid/blob/main/ulid.go which has "Copyright 2016 The Oklog Authors" but this is not mentionned in your base32.go.

cmackenzie1/go-uuid: library for generating version 4 (random) and version 7 (time-ordered) UUIDs
maybe because of dependencies: https://github.com/oklog/ulid/blob/main/go.mod ??

UUIDs Are Bad for Database Index Performance, enter UUID7!
Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier

Is it bad to use short (20 chars) random strings as primary keys?
I'm not concerned too much about the performance or the storage size at this stage. I've checked ulids before posting (more specifically https://github.com/oklog/ulid) but the only difference than a random string (especially if you use them with math.rand) is the timestamp prefix which makes them sortable, but I don't need that (users could use the internal SQLite rowid if they needed to sort by a primary key).

Golang Base Project - A simple web app with user authentication
why are you using https://github.com/oklog/ulid to generate a cookie secret?
-
What are your favorite packages to use?
oklog/ulid to generate IDs. coreos/go-oidc for validating JWTs I get from auth. google/go-cmp for comparing structs in tests (unless the project is already using Testify). spf13/pflag because life's too short for Go's flag handling. getkin/kin-openapi for validating reqests/responses against my OpenAPI spec (in tests).

Keyset pagination using UUID v4 mongodb go
If you just want to roll with an off-the-shelf library, you can use ULID. There are tons of custom made *flake alternatives. If ULID doesn't fit your purposes, look for others.

Authentication system using Golang and Sveltekit - Initialization and setup
Following the completion of the series β Secure and performant full-stack authentication system using rust (actix-web) and sveltekit and Secure and performant full-stack authentication system using Python (Django) and SvelteKit β I felt I should keep the streak by building an equivalent system in PURE go with very minimal external dependencies. We won't use any fancy web framework apart from httprouter and other basic dependencies including a database driver (pq), and redis client. As usual, we'll be using SvelteKit at the front end, favouring JSDoc instead of TypeScript. The combination is ecstatic!

Gin - HTTP web framework written in GO.
Gin is a web framework written in Go. It features a martini-like API with performance that is up to 40 times faster thanks to httprouter. If you need performance and good productivity, you will love Gin.

what's your recommended router? chi, mux, something else?
But, if you care about speed take a look at httprouter. That's the one we're using in our company. It's fast but the biggest downsides for me are:
-
go-mir - a toolkit to develop RESTful API backend service like develop service of gRPC
Mir is a toolkit to develop RESTful API backend service like develop service of gRPC. It adapt some HTTP framework sush as Gin, Chi, Hertz, Echo, Iris, Fiber, Macaron, Mux, httprouterγ

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

shift: high-performance HTTP router for Go
Also, you seemed to have copied the path.go from Julien Schmidt's httprouter without even thanking or mentioning it in the README, which I think is not a good attitude. Yes, httprouter is BSD-3-Clause licensed, but showing the people that you took the code from some respect, should be a absolute must, in my opinon.

Luciano Remes | Golang is πΌπ‘π’π€π¨π© Perfect
Take this as the high-performing router (I used this in an early demo for the company I worked for when we considered Golang). https://github.com/julienschmidt/httprouter/blob/34250257ea144905c752bfaae80d6885f190daf6/tree.go

Implemented a bench marker to compare Go's HTTP Router
The julienschmidt/go-http-routing-benchmark is the julienschmidt/httprouter, but maintenance seemed to have stopped in recent years, so I decided to create my own benchmarker and implement it. I decided to implement bench markers.

Standard library, Fiber, Iris, Gin, ... where does one even begin with writing production web apps in Go?
As another aside, I will actively discourage Iris. https://github.com/julienschmidt/httprouter/issues/148 https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/b481q7/a_warning_about_githubcomkatarasiris/
