# Go Helpers
![Go Tests](https://github.com/softwarespot/replay/actions/workflows/go.yml/badge.svg)
A collection of versatile Go helpers that can be easily integrated into any
project without the need for attribution. These helpers are designed to
enhance your development workflow and streamline common tasks. Feel free to
adjust it further if you have specific aspects you’d like to highlight!## Philosophy: Minimizing Dependencies
I adhere to a philosophy of minimizing dependencies unless absolutely necessary.
Here’s why:### 1. **Simplicity and Clarity**
By keeping dependencies to a minimum, the codebase remains straightforward and
easier to navigate. This simplicity enhances readability and makes it easier for
contributors to understand the core functionality without being overwhelmed by
external libraries.### 2. **Enhanced Control**
Implementing features from scratch allows for greater control over the code.
This means I can tailor solutions specifically to the project’s needs,
optimizing performance and ensuring that every line of code serves a purpose.### 3. **Performance Optimization**
Custom implementations can often be more efficient than generic libraries. By
avoiding unnecessary dependencies, I can fine-tune the code for better
performance, which is especially crucial in resource-sensitive applications.### 4. **Learning and Growth**
Writing my own implementations fosters a deeper understanding of the language
and the underlying principles of the code. This not only enhances my skills but
also contributes to better problem-solving abilities in future projects.### 5. **Reduced Maintenance Overhead**
Fewer dependencies mean less time spent managing version conflicts,
compatibility issues, and security vulnerabilities. This focus on minimalism
leads to a more stable and maintainable codebase.### Conclusion
While I recognize that there are scenarios where leveraging existing libraries
is beneficial, I strive to implement functionality myself whenever possible.
This approach not only aligns with my coding philosophy but also contributes to
building robust, efficient, and maintainable software. Thank you for exploring
this project!## License
