Feel free to drop suggestions on:

Useful utility functions you’d like to see
Common pain points the library could address
Improvements or optimizations to existing code

Looking forward to your input!

Thanks!

I am thinking about improving readMe. Maybe we can only mention available function names and what they do and add examples somewhere separate. Thoughts? Else the readME might become too hard to read :(

Yes, good suggestion. As we add more and more utility functions, it'll be difficult to add all of them to readMe.
We can create a new directory /examples and, inside that, we can create separate directories for each package, which can include detailed examples.

I created an issue for this. I am more inclined towards creating a EXAMPLES.md file instead of putting examples in a package (working examples). I don't think that would be required.

Head's up for v0.8.0, I am adding this. Not accepting any other PR's for next release until this is done.

How about a function that takes a string and characters min limit and generate a random string of more than limit that contains that string for testing purposes. Another good thing can be is to give option to generate string in different formats like JSON, XML, HTML etc.

Example:

testStr, err := generateRandomString("this should be added", 100, "JSON")
if err != nil{
    fmt.Errorf("%v", err)
}

fmt.Println(testStr)
/*
Example output:
{
"test": "yjaurasasaesas"
"somerandom": "somerandomcharthatdoesn'tmakesense"
"tyyss": "this should be added" <- the passed string is added in returned random string
}
*/
testStr2, err := generateRandomString("this should be added", 100, "HTML")
if err != nil{
    fmt.Errorf("%v", err)
}

fmt.Println(testStr)
/*
Example output:
<html>
<head>random words</head>
<body>
tyyss: "this should be added" <- the passed string is added in returned random string
<p>nothing just more random words</p>
</body>
</html>
*/

I know this can be challenging, but this can be used for testings where we need a random string for testing that must have some words.

where can we use that? I am asking because the application of this might be minimal

The usecase for this is mostly in testcases where you need some sort of response back in plain text, JSON or any other format. One example on my mind is that where you are mocking response from a server and you need a JSON with some specific message for test cases.

I am thinking about adding some file type conversion or you can say migration features e.g. Text to PDF or CSV to JSON etc. It can be complex but a good feature. Although it will take time to finalize all this but this is in my mind.

that is a major thing but could be really helpful. I recently needed it (HTML to PDF) and struggled to find a simple solution.
