PoC for Go generics with GORM

Introduction

This repository represents a small PoC for using Go generics together with GORM, an Object-relational mapping library for Golang.

At this stage it emphasizes possibilities, and it is not stable implementation. In this stage, it is not meant to be used for production system.

Future development is the intention for this project, and any contribution is more than welcome.
