Did you get a chance to look into encoding/json package[1]? I come from Java background and have extensively used Gson in projects, I found encoding/json at par with Gson. You can find more examples here[2].
Would you mind if I ask what did you find lacking in Go's json package when compared to Gson?
That's exactly what he is talking about. In a dynamic language, you just parse the JSON and access the resulting object. In Go, you need to have a matching record or use the interface type and implement a decoder.
