What Hacker News says
3 sourcesYou don't. But without something like them (or microframeworks + libs) you're going to be rewriting a bunch of stuff yourself. On top of that, security sensitive parts (session management, CSRF protection) that get hand-rolled will need a significant amount of testing.
If you have the time and resources though... go for it!
Edit: But it does seem like there's already some contenders for Go's go-to framework (Like Django/Rails are for their respective language)
