what packages & frameworks are most used (or should be used ) for the Real life development in Golang

[AttentiveNader]

even if this language is 9 years old , it has many frameworks and packages outside the standard library so which are most used in the golang market ? which should be used ?and is it better to use just the standard library packages as much as possible?

Hi @NaderJS - I'm starting to put together GIFM material for several frameworks that should be used for real life development. Here are a few:

• Testing with github.com/stretchr/testify/suite (in progress in #20)
• Using pop as an ORM
• Using buffalo for rails-like web development

If you have any other packages you think should be on the list, I'd love to hear about them. Just drop them in the comments below 😄
