Kong (https://github.com/alecthomas/kong) is a command line parser in go. It was originally added in PR #3930 and categorized in "Standard CLI" -- which I believe is the best category for it.
It's currently in "Configuration" and I think it was re-categorized because the description includes "and additional sources of configuration such as YAML, JSON, TOML, etc". However, these additional sources are only useful for loading defaults (see the section "Configuration(loader, paths...) in the Kong readme).
I realize this is a subtle distinction and I can't seem to find the commit that moved it to check the description of why. But as a user of Kong I was surprised to not see it in "Standard CLI" parsing and instead in "Configuration" -- and i think other users looking for a simpler command line parser would not see it in Configuration.
I looked for other issues related to Kong and didn't find any - if this issue isn't relevant or useful my apologies.
I'm not the maintainer of Kong - just a very happy user of it.
