Switch from Buffalo Pop to Gorm #21

Closed jacobconley closed 3 years ago

jacobconley commented 3 years ago

In my time familiarizing myself with Pop, I've noticed a few things that make it not as great a fit for us as I first imagined:

The Buffalo project is still great and worthy of support in its capacity as a quick all-in-one Rails-style MVC web framework in Golang, but these attributes conflict with our goal of providing a general unopinionated framework that extends beyond that domain.

Notwithstanding the above, Gorm has these advantages:

I'm not yet sure how migrations will compare to Soda, but I'm already convinced enough that switching to Gorm is a good idea

Closed due to the disintegration in da0306c; #24 will remain open for further notes and discussion
