Most debugging work was handled by the open-sourced debugger “GDB”. While this tool provided some help, it was not designed to work with several important Go language features – most notably goroutines. There have been several attempts to address the lack of a native debugger over the years. Eventually, Derek Parker’s Delve tool took the lead and is now one of the most common tools for debugging Go applications. https://www.golangworkshop.com/courses/go/deep-dive-go-functions/ Sat, 07 Aug 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.golangworkshop.com/courses/go/deep-dive-go-functions/ Level: Intermediate Author: James Wilson Functions are one of the most important elements in any language.

GORM is a library that provides object-relational mapping capabilities to eliminate much of this complexity. This course will introduce you to GORM and help you learn about how to integrate it into your next data-driven application. If you don’t have a Pluralsight account, you can still take this course! https://www.golangworkshop.com/courses/go/go-object-oriented-programming/ Sat, 07 Aug 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.golangworkshop.com/courses/go/go-object-oriented-programming/ Level: Intermediate Author: Mike Van Sickle The Go language offers a fresh way to look at how a programming language can be constructed. Each language structure is considered in light of how the developer and the compiler need to interact with it. While this has led to a language that is very clear and concise, it can make it difficult to recognize how conventional design approaches, such as object-oriented programming can be applied. https://www.golangworkshop.com/courses/go/go-horizontal-scaling-apps/ Sat, 07 Aug 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://www.golangworkshop.com/courses/go/go-horizontal-scaling-apps/ Level: Intermediate Author: Mike Van Sickle Go allows highly performant applications to be built easily due to its focus on simplicity and speed.
