During the past nine months, I have switched from JavaScript to Go and have written three projects with Go, including a large personal project (which is private).

The other two projects are:
github.com/zakaria-chahboun/cute

Cute, a minimalist beautiful Go print (fmt alternative)

github.com/zakaria-chahboun/tarjem

"Tarjem", an easy way to generate translations for your Go app

Fyne actually looks like it's come along since I last looked at it, although Nux is still in that basic, rather raw stage.

Wails looks like it's the other direction though, will have to read a bit more there, thanks!

The Web/Browser is the GUI framework of today, and I believe this is why no obvious native toolkit has emerged for Go. The web platform has its obvious drawbacks, but nothing else can touch it in terms of portability and breadth of packages available.

True, it's the easiest route to a cross platform interface these days, I guess!

Go is easy to build micro service, and it so easy to learn and quickly
