Course Description

Go comes out of the box with a full-featured standard library, requiring little in the way of third-party libraries for things like string manipulation, file and network I/O, testing, HTTP servers, and so much more.
In this course, we will dive into the packages that are the most commonly used within the standard library, including fmt, strings, strconv, errors, flag, regexp, io, os, bytes, math, time, archive, compress and image. We will also cover the net/http and context packages packages to build resilient networked applications like HTTP servers and clients. We'll learn how to take in and serve up JSON for our REST APIs using the encoding/json package. Testing is a first class citizen in Go and we'll learn how to take full advantage of it using the testing package. Lastly, no Go course would be complete without getting into what draws many to Go in the first place, it's concurrency primitives and patterns.

By Sarah Murphy

A wonderful tour of the standard library with great code examples.

By Jonathan Schneider

This is a very good place to go once you get down the basic syntax of the language. It walks you through some practical aspects of the language and familiarizes you with common patterns.

Furthermore, this is arguably the best introduction to some common concurrency patterns I have seen.

Excellent course for anyone who knows the language syntax, but still is struggling to actually write Go code.

Money well spent!

By Jessica Ho

Good learning experience, good examples to follow to understand the documentation and actual examples to demonstrate the standard library. Fast Q and A response.

By Venkat

depth teaching

By Oleg Adianov

Very superficial, without in-depth analysis and explanation. The course is suitable for general acquaintance with libraries.
