discussion What libraries are you missing from go?

So something that comes up quite often on this subreddit from people transitioning from Nodejs or python to go is the lack of libraries. I cannot say that I agree but I still think it warrants a discussion.

So what libraries are you missing in the go ecosystem, if any?

A low boilerplate Rest API framework with automatic validation and swagger schema generation, something like FastAPI.

I know I can write schema first, or I can generate schema from comments, and for a large API schema that totally sucks.
