  • Gin

    Gin is a HTTP web framework written in Go (Golang). It features a Martini-like API with much better performance -- up to 40 times faster. If you need smashing performance, get yourself some Gin.

  • Gin is one of the most popular frameworks in Golang to build HTTP servers. My general advice would be to go for the most popular framework and libraries when picking a language you’re not comfortable with yet. Once you have mastered the default configurations and setup then you can focus on optimization and picking the right framework for your use case.

  • Express

    Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for node.

  • The focus will be to write an HTTP server. ExpressJS is the most popular framework to build HTTP servers using JavaScript. The base assumption from here will be that you are already familiar with it, and are now trying to switch to Go. I am not going to focus on Go itself. The focus will be how to replicate the same ExpressJS structure in Go. Some familiarity with Go will be helpful.
