I’m kind of surprised they don’t mention afero at all, who was one of the first big packages to abstract filesystem access. Shoutout as they make unit testing filesystem ops a piece of cake! https://github.com/spf13/afero https://github.com/spf13/afero

Just a random gopher sharing their level of surprise. I didn't know about the spf13 project, but I instantly thought of https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/tools/godoc/vfs https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/tools/godoc/vfs Looks like they mention that package in their proposal.
