TL;DR you can go-get go_generics - no Bazel needed
go_generics [1] is a tool that was first observed few months back with the
release of gVisor. It allows for generating code from template while still
working with standard Go code. It's a great improvement over working with
Go templates but nothing like C++ templates.
We used it at Scylla to create go-set [2] a replacement for fatih/set [3]
package. This approach allows for working with plain types instead of
interface{} thus eliminating "escape to heap" problem and improving
performance x10 in some cases.
The reason to fork it was a messy build process with Bazel. To streamline
things for go-set [2] we fixed that so you can now just go-get the tool.
The tool is universal and can be a good fit in almost any project.
Enjoy!
