  • go

    The Go programming language

  • Yea, it's very unfortunate in my opinion but it would be incredible if it was improved in future go versions. There is an issue here that brings up some of the issues you mentioned here https://github.com/golang/go/issues/20481

  • plug

    Minimal protobuf generated plugins for go (by elliotmr)

  • One thing I found confusing is the import here https://github.com/elliotmr/plug/blob/master/example/example.proto#L4. What is the recommended way to import the proto file from your package? I simply copied it to my project. Otherwise it was fairly simple to use and implement.

  • 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.
