go-tools is a collection of utilities for Go static analysis and memory layout optimization. It provides a toolset designed to analyze source code to detect bugs and dead code, alongside specialized tools for optimizing how structs are arranged in memory.
The project includes a memory alignment visualizer to display physical memory layouts and padding, as well as a struct layout optimizer that reorders fields to minimize memory padding. Additionally, it provides a boilerplate generator to automate the creation of registration and test files required for developing custom Go analyzers.
The toolset covers broader capabilities in source code analysis, struct layout inspection, and the generation of repetitive analyzer infrastructure.
