Writing web applications using only the Go Standard Library

I literally found out about sqlx a few moments before coming here. I was stringing together ~10 columns by hand, and then when i fed them into the `row.Scan()` method, i just about rage quit. On Monday i'm going to try integrating sqlx and see how i like it.

Any other good sql libs i should know about? My coworkers mostly like sql by hand, so no magic ORMs preferably. But unmarshalling rows seems like an absolute requirement.. this is just anarchy without it.

Gorm. Give it a try. Light on magic. Can write by hand easily still. If you arent writing really complex queries and are just shuffling records around Gorm makes life a joy. It is no SQL alchemy but for most SQL users ORM/SRM makes life better. Anyway I think most systems using SQL in business logic end up implementing a relational mapper, just not as well as battle tested mappers. But some use cases do justify avoiding such tools.
