rueidis
A fast Golang Redis client that supports Client Side Caching, Auto Pipelining, Generics OM, RedisJSON, RedisBloom, RediSearch, etc.
It's important to note that it's possible to use any Redis-compatible client with Valkey. I used the go-redis client, but (at the time of writing) there is work underway to build Valkey specific client libraries. Check the Valkey GitHub org to take look at the forks of existing Redis client libraries such as valkey-go (corresponding to rueidis), iovalkey (corresponding to ioredis), Jackey (corresponding to jedis) etc. These are very early days (at the time of writing), and it will be interesting to see the progress here!
