    Discontinued Rapid Web Development w/ Go

  • There is https://gobuffalo.io/ and there is https://github.com/livebud/bud. Both are interesting approaches, but sadly, without real business interest from the community. See, 90% of what makes Laravel Laravel (or Rails Rails) is business adoption. And, as you will sadly find out, the business adoption for traditional Web applications is exactly zero. If you don't want to make the same mistake as I did, and spend 3 years of your life searching for it, do as the others advised - just use the tools and frameworks that have already been built to solve the problem you need.

  • ent

    An entity framework for Go

  • This maybe isn’t an answer you want, but I will throw it out here anyway in case it is helpful. I have really enjoyed Encore.dev. It isn’t an open source framework like the examples you mentioned, but it is awesome for starting a new API project. It removes a ton of boilerplate and tooling for deployment. If you wanted an ORM you still need to add something like Ent.

  • Goyave

    🍐 Elegant Golang REST API Framework (v5 release candidate available)

  • I can't say it rivals because it's still far from that, but I'm working on Goyave. The goal is to make a complete package so you can focus on your business logic as much as possible. It's focused on REST APIs only.

  • pagoda

    Rapid, easy full-stack web development starter kit in Go

  • Recently, I have stumbled across this one: https://github.com/mikestefanello/pagoda

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
