slightly unrelated but what’s with storing the entire codebase in the root directory instead of a nested src folder? It makes getting to the README a lot more difficult
This is valid criticism. Go fanbois don't like listening to any go criticism. They were all like who needs templates in go. and now go has templates.
To me go code looks like somebody vomitted stuff in the root dir and i have to wade through that every time. No namespacing. nothing
Thats the default for go projects. Go imports are repository strings (e.g.):
so it's standard to have the library files in the root directory.
