Moving from PHP (Laravel) to Go
Published on Apr 17, 2017

Earlier this year, I made an arguably bad business decision. I decided to rewrite the Laravel application powering Boxzilla in Go.

No regrets though.

Just a few weeks later I was deploying the Go application. Building it was the most fun I had in months,
I learned a ton and the end result is a huge improvement over the old application. Better performance, easier deployments and higher test coverage.

The application is a fairly straightforward database driven API & account area where users can log-in to download the product, view their invoices or update their payment method.

Stripe and Braintree are used to accept subscription payments. Invoices are handled using MoneyBird and some transactional emails are sent using Mailgun.

While Laravel worked well enough for this, some things always felt overcomplicated to me. And what’s with releasing a new “major” version every few months?
I’d be fine if the newer versions contained significant improvements, but a lot of times it just felt like minor naming & directory structure changes to me.
