I cant appreciate enough about the effort the authors has put in, The book does what is exactly says. It takes you from a very rudimentary level to a very advanced level. I personally never understood interfaces, lets not talk about empty interfaces{}. not only this book helped me understand it, Now i can even teach others confidently.What this book does best that very few book does, it never guess reader's understanding of Go and try to explain things as if reader knows nothing.The exercise challenges are neither too difficult, nor too easy. But each exercise is a build up from previous. So it cements your understanding.The Database, time, interfaces, http chapters were the best i've ever come across. It does not only starts with very basic but also teaches you advanced stuff, you can use in real life. it even teaches you how to write your application to protect from SQL injection. this book deserve a 5 out of 5 just for these chapters alone.I actually got this from packt portal, i wanted to write a review there, I did not see any option there, so i wrote it here.

This workshop gives us the knowledge of computer science fundamentals along with the necessary examples in Go.The examples from datastructures to algorithms to packages give us a wide variety of collection which cannot found on any online free resources at this moment.Also included are the real-world engineering examples for connecting to databases, managing filesystems, Security and concurrency examples in Golang are invaluable for any readers with a basic programming skillset.Paraphrasing was done decently to make readers understand the gist of the code flow.My only complaint is that some chapters are more verbose.

This book is written for the person that has no programming experience with Go or any other language. A few other books I have bought assume the reader has some experience with C or Java and don't really explain basic things.

This what you need to study to understand how Go works and write your own code. It is tedious, but if you want to really learn a language you have to put the time in and study it. Examples all along on how to write your own modules so you can reduce the overhead and write exactly what you want. I never quite trust 3000 lines of code in anything that you download and try to decipher how it is changing your system. To me Go is something that you need to tailor for yourself.

This book walks you through the basics of Go all the way up to some of the advanced concepts. You will learn the Go programming language and have projects that you have built by the end of this book. The projects are fun the writing style is very easy to understand and helps to solidify the concepts taught.If you are looking for a way to learn Go and learn it well I highly recommend this book.
