Well, gorilla/sessions is meant for sessions.. a more comparable package would be https://github.com/gorilla/securecookie ; And while, both can achieve the same functionality with signed cookies, the primary purpose of my package was to allow you to easily convert multiple cookies into a struct, which was not functionality I've seen from cookie packages I've interacted with.

Honestly, I wish I was able to get into the Codespace Preview so I could play around with a lot the experimental features it offers - Especially the tie in with Docker Desktop Dev Environments, my whole development workflow is likely going to change drastically this year.

The GitHub acquisition likely the single catalyst that showed me Microsoft has actually pivoted how they're approaching business, and are at least putting good faith efforts to do better.

With literally 0 actual knowledge to reference on how GitHub has felt since then, outwardly it feels like MSFT has played to all of their strengths (money, infrastructure, money, "developers, "developers", "developers" memes) and amplified what GitHub had been pushing for.

I only hope it stays going well, because it's certainly keeping me engaged in trying more MSFT products and services than I likely would've otherwise even glanced at.
