Module
Intro To Golang
Never tried Go yet? Or you did but you just need a refresher? In this campaign we will take you on a slow ride Go-ing towards your developer journey with Go.
We will cover topics starting from what Go is, installing Go on your computer and running your first Go program!
We then talk about where Go is now to give you some insights on what specific part of the industry Go specialises in such as its dominance in the container technologies, and some language comparisons on popular languages such as Python and Rust.
Lastly, we will introduce you to Go's syntax and Go's semantics from functions to types, control flow logic such as switch-case. You will also briefly learn how to add Go modules and use them within your small Go project and also a quick look for building Go programs in an offline environment.
