About The Event

Go is an open source programming language developed at Google by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike and Ken Thompson that makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software.

Who Should Attend:

  • Engineering managers looking to evaluate or adopt Go
  • Software developers starting to adopt Go
  • Teams looking to share best practices around Go development workflows
Why should I learn Go:

Go is a modern, concurrent and safe language. There is a huge, supportive community, backed by giants like Google, Dropbox, Docker and Cloudflare. All this results in one thing programmers are able to create stabler code in lesser time.
 
Course Prerequisites:

The course is designed for software developers with a few years of professional experience, having knowledge of any language like Python, PHP or Java. Knowledge of Go is not expected. Being comfortable with using the command-line terminal would be helpful.
 
The course will be very hands-on. You need to bring your laptop, running Windows, Linux or macOS. Internet access will be available at the training center. Please install the git version control system beforehand. You can use your editor of choice, or the free Visual Studio Code with Go extensions. You can also install Go itself as per the instructions here, which will save time during the training.
