Mainly Andurel, which is the fullstack framework I always wanted for Go

It follows a lot of the conventions of Rails which is probably why it has turned out quite well

That's great!

They work well for some problem sets. But, 3 months are not a long time. This post is a reflection of me using these things heavily over 1+ year and problems keeps creeping up.

And good, you shouldn't give a shit about what I believe. I'm just a random guy on the internet. But, I'm not the only one to start noticing these problems.

Show HN: Master Golang, Fullstack Go web dev course, scratch to production

mbvisti — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 15:25:32 +0000

I’ve been building production Go web apps for the past 7 years. One gap I kept running into: most Go resources teach syntax well, but stop before things actually look like production.

So I built the course I wish I had.

You build a real app from start to finish: a blog with authentication and an admin portal, PostgreSQL, server-side rendering (Templ), Datastar for interactivity, Docker, and VPS deployment.

13+ hours, 40+ lessons, structured in 3 parts: Core app + architecture, Data layer + auth, Deployment + production concerns

Stack: Go 1.24, Templ, Datastar, Tailwind, PostgreSQL (SQLC), Goose, Docker.

Early bird runs through Feb 28 ($35, normally $100). 30-day refund if it’s not useful.

https://mastergolang.com

Happy to answer questions about the curriculum, stack choices (especially Templ + Datastar vs SPA), or anything else.

I'm working in getting my fullstack web framework Andurel to v1 (currently in beta).

The goal is to approach the developer experience you get from Rails, but in Go, while keep as many of the idioms from Go.

Show HN: Rails-like web framework for Go

mbvisti — Sun, 04 Jan 2026 12:01:35 +0000

Over the past couple of months I have been working on my own framework the encapsulates how I have come to build web apps using Go.

The aim is to make it faster and easier to build full-stack web applications that fully embraces hypermedia instead of JSON data API backend + SPA fronted

It's getting close to a v1-beta release but the core structure and functionality is there.

Would love to hear hn's thoughts!

I have nothing to add but this looks cool! Will definitely check it out :)

Thanks!

Yeah I tried out Buffalo as well but felt like they ended up doing too much!

If you check it out, I'd love to hear what you think! It's not ready for a v1 yet, still very exploratory.

Andurel - a rails-like framework in Go

https://github.com/mbvlabs/andurel

Probably only building for myself here but super fun to explore how that would look like.

I'm working on a Go full stack framework called Andurel: https://github.com/mbvlabs/andurel

It's meant to be a 'rails-like' experience in Go without too much magic and conventions.

Basically, speeding up development of fullstack apps in Go using templ, datastar, sqlc with an MVC architecture and some basic generators to quickly setup models, views and controllers.

you're stretching the definition of deception here my guy-what do you want them to do? plaster a big sign on the landing page stating that this framework ALSO contains pro features that you have to pay for?

not sure i think this is a good way to fund their work BUT exploring models to make open-source sustainable for the developers does seem like a good thing, no?
