Gophers tend to roll their own and forego larger frameworks.

Piecing together libraries can absolutely be daunting, but once you get a starter app built your productivity will go way, way up.

I'd really recommend this (paid) course at https://www.usegolang.com

It walks you through pulling in different libraries (Gorilla Mux, GORM, etc), gluing them together, and structuring your code in a maintainable way.

A couple of other folks have mentioned Buffalo. It's a great ecosystem for building applications quickly, but I would strongly urge you to go through gluing the packages together yourself first to really understand what is going on underneath the magic.

Solid advice. I will take a look at the course, looks interesting. Thanks for sharing.
