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.

Still doesn't have half of batteries that Python, Java and .NET include.

As someone that writes Java and Python, I'm unsure what you're referring to here by "batteries" other than 3rd party packages.

Even something as basic as JSON encoding requires an external package in Java.
