Thanks

Built in good company.

GoLazy is a small framework, but it is not pretending to be an island. These projects and communities made the path easier to see.

Gorilla

For practical Go web libraries.

GoLazy's cookie and session packages are adapted from Gorilla's securecookie and sessions packages, and lazyschema is adapted from Gorilla schema. They set a high bar for small, dependable web libraries, and GoLazy keeps the Gorilla BSD-style license notices with the adapted source.

Rails

For making web development feel fun.

Thanks to Rails for showing, for so many years, that conventions can make serious work feel light enough to keep moving.

Jinzhu Inflection And Active Support

For a language of conventions.

GoLazy's inflection helpers are pure Go, but their English naming rules trace back through Jinzhu's MIT-licensed Go inflection package to the Rails Active Support inflector. Those defaults helped make resource names, table names, and route parameters feel familiar.

For simple, predictable, and boring.

Thanks to Go for making boring a compliment: plain files, plain tools, direct control flow, and a language shape that stays readable after the excitement wears off.

OpenTelemetry

For a shared observability language.

GoLazy uses OpenTelemetry Go as the foundation for telemetry, then adds small framework semantics for request ids, controller and view spans, logs, metrics, and development trace artifacts. The OpenTelemetry API keeps those signals compatible with the wider observability ecosystem.

The Browser In The Browser

For the candid render.

Thanks to the frontend view layers that got so cool they rebuilt routing, forms, and the browser inside the browser. That ambition helped draw GoLazy back toward the server, the real browser, and a smaller path that still feels good to use.

Chrome DevTools

For the developer surface.

GoLazy's Chrome extension vendors a small, adapted subset of Chrome DevTools CSS tokens and Network-panel class patterns under the Chromium BSD-style license. DevTools sets the standard for what a browser-native development panel should feel like, so GoLazy keeps its own panel close to that language and color scheme.

Serverless And Split Stacks

For the server that moved next door.

Thanks to the serverless apps where the frontend and backend live in two different repositories, close enough to depend on each other and far enough apart to keep everyone honest. They helped sharpen GoLazy's preference for one app shape you can run, read, and ship.
