Review on Molasses by Michael Gupta

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Easy tool to get something up and runnning

I love how easy it was when creating my first test project in Go! The documentation makes getting started very simple - no need for configuration files or complicated code examples at all even though we are running our app inside Docker containers (which can be tricky). Not much so far as this version only supports go 1.* which limits us somewhat since newer versions have more advanced APIs available now such an async maps/lists etc., however they should add some sorta compatibility layer between older & new API's soon enough if you ask me ;) Also not everyone has docker setup properly yet because most people still use Macs instead :p So having said those things there really isn't anything too bad about molassess itself :) Creating applications using golangs awesome standard library made everything super straight forward while developing without worrying what happens outside your application scope haha!

Pros
  • Very good community around both open source projects related directly by google engineers themselves eases finding answers via stackoverflow questions quickly plus github issues where dev team gets notified automatically upon creation helps ease bug reporting process quite significantly compared than submitting tickets through
Cons
  • Some little things
