pat

Revel is getting traction mostly among people who (like its author) are not very familiar with Go. As gorilla http://gorilla-web.appspot.com/ and pat https://github.com/bmizerany/pat (by the creator of Sinatra) are much more in line with the Go philosophy.

> The most popular web frameworks i've seen for Go so far are Web.go (a Web.py clone) and Revel (a Play clone). Unfortunately both web.go and specially Revel were developed by people that were not (yet?) familiar with Go's style, and they simply cloned what they expected from other languages and frameworks they were more familiar with. Gorilla[1] and pat[2] (by the creator of Sinatra, who is now a Gopher) fit much more with the Go style and philosophy. [1]: http://gorilla-web.appspot.com/ [2]: https://github.com/bmizerany/pat

Gorilla and pat (by the author of Sinatra) are probably the web "frameworks" I would recommend if you want to stick with minimalist idiomatic Go style. http://code.google.com/p/gorilla/ https://github.com/bmizerany/pat And just say no to ORM. Disclaimer: I contributed to the original Gorilla design, but all the credit should go to moraes (and everyone else who was contributed to the project).
