Go: A beginner’s perspective. What’s the Google Go language (Golang) really good for? Is it “worth a go”? Ease of deployment, simple syntax, and native concurrency make for strong arguments! You will hear about Go from a beginner’s point of view.

No Go experience is necessary.

You will learn more about Go, and leave with a better idea of whether Go is a language that you should learn and use in either personal or business projects. I will also give suggestions for five “first projects” for people new to Go.
