Can you elaborate on what makes cobra ungoish? I had built a CLI using it without prior knowledge of Go (but with a background in scripting languages and a some C#) and it seemed pretty straightforward.

The only issue that I can tell was that you can possibly create errors that the compiler can miss, but it's been pretty solid otherwise.

Cobra is very much a kitchen sink approach with a lot of gen. I'd rather have less dependency and write just using the stdlib without the kitchen sink, which is more goish.
That makes a lot of sense.

I guess the parallel for me would be using Rack as opposed to Rails for Ruby.

Thanks for responding!
