I wanted to come here and share my experience with moving away from Django. My job recently required us to switch to Go, using Gin and Gorm, and after about a month I can confidently say how much I miss Django.

In particular, I really miss having clear, detailed documentation with plenty of real examples. Has anyone else felt this when moving away from Django to another stack?

I 100% expected this to be a troll post about how django is headed in the wrong direction because it’s in Internals. I’m so happy that it’s not and that it’s a wonderful compliment 😁
