this looks fine but not a fan of gorm.

but it could be decent choice if u want to build integrated framework i can understand why people would choose it, another option is code_generation_meta_hell with sqlboiler. upper db [0] would have been perfect fit for this kind of project but is not that famous, its development is slow but stable.

ps: i like sqlboiler what i am saying is if u are building framework top on it then not that fun

Code generation is an awesome alternate, I'm more familiar with sqlc.dev. They're doing some really interesting work.

My goal with Copper is to provide out-of-the-box integrations with popular solutions to various problems. For now, I picked GORM but I definitely see adding support for other tools.

Will 2nd not being a fan of Gorm. In general not a fan of ORMs - implicit behaviours and magic query generation in a language like Go is completely antithetical to the explicit and verbose nature of the language.
what do you think of Ent [1]?
