You are missing the entire point of Rails and making the OP's point for them.
> Go's standard library provides good enough text templating
Rails offers much more than this, this again makes OP's point for them.
- samtheprogram 2y agoSecond this. My GP missed the point — the integration with front end tooling all the way to the database means you get so much more for free.
- rednafi 2y agoExactly. I don’t want to waste time on trivial decisions like which frontend tool to use or what templating engine to pick. This is exactly why Go isn’t great for building full-stack apps. Every app in Go looks different because you have to assemble all the parts yourself. In contrast, RoR or Django provides a nice rubric to get you up and running quickly. That said, I still like Go when I need to spin up a microservice with a well-defined scope.
