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 📖!

Hi there 👋 and have a good weekend to everyone! I like to share some interesting pet projects and one of them calls GoCraft. Here is an GoLang implementation of famous Minecraft game 🙂 and it has some features:

- Basic terrain generation
- Add and Remove blocks.
- Move and fly.

System requirements from Readme are:
macOS, Ubuntu/Debian-like Linux, CentOS/Fedora-like Linux but I think you are able to try to launch it on Windows if you want 😉
