I continue to looking for interesting articles about the IO package and today I’ve found one more good post in last Medium Digest by Vladimir Vivien from Kubernates. It calls “IO Streaming в GoLang”.
Main points of it:
- A structure and internal processes of io.Reader and io.Writer;
- Custom implementations of them;
- Useful types and packages for IO(os.File, os.Stdout, os.Stdin, and os.Stderr, io.Copy(), etc);
- Pipe writers and readers.

This article is completely of technical info, examples and illustrations 😀 Enjoy reading 📖!

Good day 👋 I would like to share following 7 advices in short article by Kartik Khare how to increase your code quality in GoLang. Of course, before using it you should understand reasons for each advice in the post. As example Kartik writes:

#6 Use int as keys instead of strings in Map.

It’s a good way but here we can get optimization for optimization 🤔

Why are goroutines not lightweight threads?

Kartik Khare shows us his meaning about goroutines, lightweight threads and their difference in GoLang. There are no code examples inside but good thoughts about parallelism, threads and useful links at the end of the article :)

Hi, there! I found one interesting topic, which calls

The State of Developer Ecosystem Survey in 2018

Here is a whole report about GoLang usage by Jetbrains company includes frameworks, libraries and testing analytics. You are also able to pick another languages and technologies because this report contains only to the developers who chose Go as one of their three primary programming languages.

A good reading list with a knowledge base about Golang, based on blog posts and Golang books. Inside of the link:
- 3 categories of stages: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced;
- Common questions like “Why should you learn Go?” and “How to Write Go Code”
- Web, Concurrency, Code style, Testing and other GoLang related topics.

Hello, there! One GoLang feature proposal about immutability is here 🙂
It’s a really interesting idea with pros and cons inside, it has a good explanation, use cases and examples for the following proposed changes: fields, arguments, variables, return values, methods reference types (Pointers, slices, maps, channels). This approach merits attention if you are interested in paths of GoLang development, so, have a good reading! 😉
