Can you point to what you think is an example of a good open source web application written in Go? I'm curious to see what non-trivial web applications in Go look like. I've tried Go for web applications a couple times, but I ended up feeling the same way you do about it. I've really liked it for backend things, however.

* https://github.com/drone/drone/

* https://github.com/jordan-wright/gophish

All are reasonably sized; Sourcegraph and Drone especially so.

We made https://github.com/sourcegraph/thesrc as an example large open-source web app in Go because we also wished we had examples like this when we were starting.
