Go is already an intentionally simple language with an excellent standard library, and dictates how to do things in the right way. Do we really need something on top of it? Not to mention, it's quite common that engineers like to reinvent the wheel, at least a little bit. It's just part of the fun, no one can blame them for that)
- asim 6y agoWith all due respect I think thats a bit of a short sighted statement. To say a language offers enough is to negate all of the tools built on top which others have leveraged to build other pieces of software. If you imagine all the things you import are they purely the standard library? Very unlikely. In the same way, Go Micro is built on not just Go but many other libraries. I think if you find value in using the pure standard library, good for you and I commend you on the effort of the not invented here syndrome. But for the rest of us it is much easier when someone else helps us out by laying the foundations for the next thing.
- bad_op3rator 6y agoJeez... with all due respect, not sure it's a great idea to cover yourself with "the rest of us"... but back to the idea of frameworks that make life easier. One of the problems with frameworks is that sooner or later, you start hacking them, breaking the ideas behind them, and make your life complicated. So it's better to think twice before start using any framework. BTW Why do you call it a framework?
