Accessing the database with Go needs the database/sql package. Apart from reading the official docs, this web site makes it even clearer on “how to” and “what not to do” matters. Learn idiomatic operations on it as well.

The Metabase astonished me with its simplicity of design, both on the workflow and the UI. I “ask” it questions, it shows me the answers. That’s it.
Digging deeper, I can gather the answers and make a dashboard to visualize the data. Or I can see the SQL it generates if I want to.
Here’s a screenshot from its repo:
