Tried Go + Gin for the 1st time today

And I like it.
I haven't benchmarched the reqs/sec yet to compare, but just the syntax and the green threads already made me like it a lot

I come from Rails and I tried Gin, but it seemed extremely half-assed, with some very obscure docs and an attempt to sell you a paid book which is supposed to act as real docs. Is that still the case? It just seemed easier to just put together a webapp with various pieces like router, ORM etc., that are available either in stdlib or as solid 3rd party modules.

Never heard if “gin” but I was just working on a C# project and it was slow, insufferable garbage.

Using a framework/router instead of the standard library is a waste of time, also the net package routing capabilities are more powerful now.

It can become bloatshit if you start using turbo, tailwind, various npm shit and all that fucking crap. If you, like me, learned Rails in 2000s, you know how to keep it under control. It's basically a very sane set of defaults with MVC approach and normal server side rendering.

thats just the thing. no one needs to learn to keep go or rust under control.
good out of the box will always beat good after some babysitting.

Don't be like that, dude. I learned Go just like I learned Ruby or any other language. It's not good out of the box,Go's advantage is an enormous amount of nice packages and decebt stdlib. If it wasn't for that, the language itself wouldn't even be mid. Stop being a fanboy.

Looks like you're right. Hadn't looked at those in a while. Currently using chi router in a project but ditching dependencies is very valuable there.

Why should I use Gin? I always use net/http and it does everything I need.
