ptr 
ptr contains functions for simplified creation of pointers from constants of basic types.
Support for generics has been implemented since version 1.4.0. Required 1.18 or later version of Go.
Installation
go get github.com/gotidy/ptr
Examples
This code:
p := ptr.Of(10)
is the equivalent for:
i := int(10)
p := &i
