Plain Go, no frameworks (may be a little Gorilla toolkit components such as their mux), Postgres with sqlx and React on the front end. I describe it in detail here:

* Standard library for a lot of things.

* https://github.com/go-chi/chi is pretty good. I have a need for a lot of custom middlewares, so I need something more fleshed out than net/http.

* All config files are written in TOML: https://github.com/BurntSushi/toml

* https://github.com/gocql/gocql for all Cassandra needs.

* Development work is done in Docker so everyone has a consistent env.

That's all, I tend to dislike overarching frameworks. Smaller libraries work better for me.

We rolled our own, nice benefit is everything registers events with the same logging subsystem and lets us define central hooks for common things like errors (to send to reporters).

I have used gin / libpq / sqlx for my food side project.

At my day job I use the standard library.

I've started using Echo[1] and it seems to provide most of what I'm looking for (routing, context, sessions, CSRF protection, form/json binding, etc). For templating, I'm using QuickTemplate[2] which creates statically generated templates, but Pongo2[3] and Jet[4] also look reasonable. sqlx[5], gorm[6], and sqlboiler[7] all seem reasonable for database access, depending on what your style is (sqlx being oriented towa…

Sweet! Buffalo looks really interesting. I was playing with Sails the other day, which is a Rails-like framework for nodejs, I will try Buffalo and try to compare the experience. Would you recommend Buffalo for a JSON Web API mobile backend project or would it be an overkill?

I don't know how relevant it is, but the creator of Buffalo has a video explaining how to hook up Vue to the framework: https://blog.gobuffalo.io/using-vue-js-with-buffalo-video-ee...

Gin/React. I was using templates but decided to offload some display logic on the frontend instead of creating more API endpoints. So I switched to React. I dig writing decoupled front/backends

I use Buffalo for an API and Vue.js with TypeScript as a frontend.
