I don't think it is. It's fundamentally taking the code out of your control. With my services all the code is there, we can tweak it if necessary, we're not tied to a framework, it's just a barebones foundation of a Go application.

Nothing is hidden away from you with code generation. There's no in-between steps from what you write to what you execute other than Go compilation.

I think it's the wrong mentality to require a whole new set of third-party tools to maintain a Go application. It then starts feeling like you're writing Javascript, and does anyone really want that?
