Products that do what Golang Cafe is now open source does

It’s been not long that I’ve launched Golang Cafe https://golang.cafe/. The first Go job board with no recruiters and clear salary ranges. I’ve came to realise quite a few people enjoyed the product. This time as requested by many already I've decided to open source Golang Cafe - The code is licensed under the BSD 3-Clause license which means you can re-use the code for weather you like, even commercial purposes, as long as you don't use "Golang Cafe" as brand name.https://github.com/golang-cafe/golang.cafe. - Any revenue which is pretty much used to pay…

    Hi Everyone, I have been working on and off on Golang Cafe for a couple of years. Golang Cafe[0] is the first Go job board with no recruiters and clear salary ranges. Engineers apply directly to companies. There is always a developers section where you can submit your Go developer profile and get hired (for free)[1]. This weekend I have added a new feature. It's now possible to filter jobs by minimum compensation. So for example here's a list of all Go jobs paying at least $100,000+ a year[2]. The project is open source [3]. Any criticism is very welcome. [0] https://golang.cafe…

    I have been using golang at work and personally for more than 2 years now. A problem i faced when I started and the problem new gophers even today is how to structure the project. Most (if not all) golang tutorials seem to be very simple and do not describe how to structure a large application. Following project is an attempt to Showcase a manageable project layout for services in golang. https://github.com/spy16/droplets This project is far from complete. Would like to hear some feedback from the community before continuing on this.

    Hey everyone, I recently built OpenJobHub, a free and open source job board for engineers. My goal is simple: in these tough times, I hope more people can find good jobs, and that job information can be more open and transparent. Feel free to share it with any recruiters, HRs, or friends who are hiring. Let's build a healthier job ecosystem together. GitHub: https://github.com/junminhong/jobs Website: https://jobs.wowkit.net

    Hello, I'm the author of the nature programming language, which has reached an early usable version since its first commit in 2021 until today. --- Why implement such a programming language? go is a programming language that I use for my daily work, and the first time I used golang, I was amazed by its simple syntax, freedom of programming ideas, ease of cross-compilation and deployment, excellent and high-performance runtime implementations, and advanced concurrency style design based on goroutine, etc. But, golang also has some inconveniences - The syntax is too concise, resulting in a…

    Hi HN! So this all started out as an experiment. I wanted to test the Golang gomobile library to build a small app on Android in Go. And it turned out to be a game, and harder than I thought... After a lot of work and many gotchas (and a lot of moments where I was about to give up and started to squint on Unity) I finally manage to create a working game for Android with Go. The game is quite simple and if it wasn't for being written in OpenGL/OpenAL from scratch it would be quite simple to make it in Unity or any other game engine for that matter. Another goal of my project was actually…

    In my spare time to remind myself that I could actually build stuff (and learn some Python, Flask, Redis, etc) I put together a simple job board to feature the best jobs in the API industry. The jobs can be either building APIs at companies like Twilio, Box, Stripe, etc. or integrating them. In addition to featuring those jobs, I'm also aggregating API jobs from GitHub Jobs, Stack Overflow Careers 2.0, and 37signals Job Board. Today I launched with what I would consider an 'MVP' with jobs from SendGrid, TokBox, Twilio, Zencoder, Parse, Stripe, Pusher and Box. Check it out, I'd love to know…

    Hello HN, I've just released a new migration tool for Go that mimics the functionality of Ruby on Rails migrations. It's designed to help Go developers manage database schema changes with ease. This allows you several benefits: - Write type-safe migrations - Auto down of migrations whenever it's possible - Easy backfill even with business logic because it's Go code - Painless integration with existing schema - sql.DB compatible and driver agnostic (it uses your driver) I have a pretty complete API to manage Postgres schema and I am working on the SQLite one (a little more complicated due to…

    Hello HN! These last few months I've been working on my first open source project: an embedded database written in pure-go. That took me some months, as I had to learn how to deal with such large packages. Until then, all packages I had made were quite small an did not require much. I usually did not have to worry about things like allocation optimization and instance pools until This project. It started when I wanted to make a port of a tool to a TUI environment. I'm actually used to working with TUIs in golang, so that was my language of choice. The tool I wanted to port is written in…

    I built it for myself because ngrok didn't let me add one more domain unless I paid $12 more. I probably should've looked for alternatives before building my own, but my grudge got in the way . Once I started, I wanted to make it better than the other options. Silly, I know. No one probably cares. I plan to open source it sometime next year because I’ve got other projects to finish first. It's free until I deplete my cloud credits, then it will switch to a tier-based model with a free option.
