How to use slice capacity and length in go #tutorials

Wed, 25 Jan 2017 23:56:00 +0000

This blog post discusses a common bug stemming from developers not understanding append and make, and then goes into the difference between slices and arrays so that it is easier to understand what capacity and length are and how they are used when making slices. 12 points posted by jon

Creating My First Web Application with Go #tutorials

Tue, 28 Feb 2017 13:13:00 +0000

I started learning Go in March 2016. I felt like I had reached a point with software testing where I would not be able to improve unless I started really putting more effort into my coding skills. I had previously written a bit of test automation in Python but I was seeing and reading lots of cool things about Go. You can try out the finished app here. 9 points posted by drogo

Testing Go standard library changes #gophercon #tutorials

I had a wonderful time at GopherCon 2017. One of the highlights was being a mentor at the Go Contributor Workshop. This involved two 1.5-hour sessions where Go developers of all skill levels were walked through the process of making their first contributions to the Go project. Every table at the session had two or more mentors to help. Mentors included members of the Go team and community members familiar with the process.

Idiomatic go resources #tutorials

Sat, 02 Mar 2019 06:37:00 +0000

Every time the discussion comes up around “What does good Go code look like”, the response is “check the standard library”. However, not all of the standard library is a good example. Some of it was written early on, before styles had settled down or before best practices were understood and have now been cemented due to neglect or the Go1 Compatibility Guarantee. A better place is to read the evolving Best Practices documents that give style guides that come with the experience of lots of code written, reviewed, and deployed to production, and debugged. 4 points posted by kenny

Modern golang programming on Udemy #video #tutorials

Fri, 20 Oct 2017 06:49:00 +0000

Go is the language of the Internet age, because it was built from the ground up to support modern distributed web software. Go is also cross-platform as it compiles to numerous operating systems and CPU architectures via simple commands. It compiles to native binaries, it doesn't use a VM, and is garbage-collected, which makes it a breeze to deploy in production environments.

Throughout the course, we will use modern open source third party packages in Go to build a distributed application that will support several databases, establish efficient serial communications techniques, and construct an advanced web layer with templates, cookies, and websockets support.

Length 20h 12m MP4 Video Description Master programming with Go by learning how to write idiomatic, effective code About This Video Program like a seasoned expert with one of the great new programming languages Write idiomatic Go the right way, and understand the fundamental mechanics of the language in depth Understand how to develop powerful performant applications and services with Go In Detail Go has moved from the state of tentative to mass adoption. Its C-like speed, simplicity, and power for a growing number of systems level programming domains make it an attractive option for programmers working with older cumbersome, statically typed languages. Golang has entered the space as an entirely viable language for accomplishing a huge array of low level programming and service infrastructure tasks. This video course not only gives you a deep insight into the fundamental mechanics behind the language, but also covers extensive practical topics on Go for modern software architectures. It shows you how to write Go in an intelligent, idiomatic way. After a brief re-acquaintance with the key building blocks of Go, we will also explore how we can build upon the unique capabilities of the language to write effective, powerful code you can employ to develop software. We look at packages, object-oriented programming, concurrency and reflection among other things. Moreover, you will learn about Go’s awesome built-in testing support feature. Along the way, build your skills in File handling techniques, Go packages for databases, data serialization approaches, message communications between Go services, and Go web applications. Get your hands on with a plenty of illustrative code samples, exercises and real-world scenarios that will help you build your own application. 3 points posted by iris-go

Enhancing Application Communication with gRPC #pluralsight #tutorials #video #grpc

Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:10:00 +0000

There have been many different strategies over the years to get software written in one language to communicate with one written in another. The two primary approaches that have evolved have been RESTful services (typically using JSON documents to transmit data) and RPC (remote procedure calls) that use a variety of different transmission techniques. In this course, Enhancing Application Communication with gRPC, you’ll be introduced to the gRPC framework that Google uses for much of its inter-service communication. First, you’ll cover the components of gRPC application. Next, you’ll discover how to use protocol buffers to define gRPC services. Finally, you’ll learn how to create gRPC clients and servers using C#, Java, Node.js, and Go. By the end of this course, you’ll know how to use gRPC in your distributed system applications. 3 points posted by iris-go
