This is something seldom attempted, but I congratulate you. Go is one of a few languages that really is batteries-included. Just about anything you could need is included in the stdlib.

One of the reasons I prefer it over something like Rust for most projects. I don't have to waste time figuring out what third-party library is the defacto standard that I should be using.

It’s a tradeoff. Do you prefer to be stuck with bad built-in file and time APIs, or a robust ecosystem of external crates?

I rather have something that works everywhere there is a full implementation of the platform, instead of whatever third parties decided to support.
