MARIAN MONTAGNINO May 17, 2024

I'm so impressed with this book—it's incredibly comprehensive, taking you from beginner to professional. It starts with the basics and progresses to creating HTTP services and command line interfaces, two very common uses of Golang. The numerous examples reinforce your understanding of each topic, making the learning curve much easier to manage. This book stands out not only because it uses the latest version of Golang, but also because Samantha has broken down each topic in a way that's easy to digest. If you're looking for one book to learn Golang, I highly recommend this one!
