I get wanting to be productive and gravitating towards patterns you’re familiar with but in the end it’s all bloat. http can do routing and patterns and cookies and sessions. database/sql can do your DAL work. uuid (various implementations) work for user/tenant uid+oid obfuscation. JWT libs for auth. You can literally json.unmarshal your config for your whole application or use godotenv to use environment variables. template/html for views. Golang has batteries, it’s just you don’t know what you don’t know so you expect a certain perspective that isn’t how we do things. Like joining a new company, things are different here. If you spent some time to learn the “go way” you’d realize that you don’t need the bloat, you just need the structure. The “where I expect it”.
