Intro to Go Workshop

Getting Started

Go, or Golang, is a programming language invented by Google developers in 2007, and released in 2012, making it one of the more modern languages commonly used. It's known for its simplicity, efficiency, and excellent support for concurrency, and is great to learn regardless of current programming knowlege. If you are completely new to Go, we recomend first completing A Tour of Go.

In this workshop, we'll test your understanding of the basics of Go, from its basic syntax to more complex data groups.
