I was looking for advice on how EASEL and goalign compare?

There is obviously an overlap in terms of functionalities. However goalign was originally developed to provide a simple and cross platform command line utility to handle sequences and alignments in a phylogenetic perspective (bootstrap, distance matrices with several models, etc.). It goes with gotree, which handles phylogenetic trees. As it is developed in go, it also provides an api usable in go programs. Tell me if you need more information, Best
