Spaceship Go is a journey to Go's Standard Library. Several key packages are explored in order to understand why they are useful, and also how they are implemented under the hood. It serves as a reference of some key available tools and primitives offered by the language, which can be very helpful to write performant and idiomatic code.
Security with Go is the first Golang security book, and it is useful for both blue team and red team applications. With this book, you will learn how to write secure software, monitor your systems, secure your data, attack systems, and extract information.
Defensive topics include cryptography, forensics, packet capturing, and building secure web applications.
Offensive topics include brute force, port scanning, packet injection, web scraping, social engineering, and post exploitation techniques.
In this book we will create a programming language together.
We'll start with 0 lines of code and end up with a fully working interpreter for the Monkey* programming language.
Step by step. From tokens to output. All code shown and included. Fully tested.
This is the sequel to Writing An Interpreter In Go.
We're picking up right where we left off and write a compiler and a virtual machine for Monkey.
Runnable and tested code front and center, built from the ground up, step by step — just like before.
But this time, we're going to define bytecode, compile Monkey and execute it in our very own virtual machine.
It's the next step in Monkey's evolution.
The Ultimate Go Notebook is the official companion book for the Ardan Labs Ultimate Go class.
With this book, you will learn how to write more idiomatic and performant code with a focus on micro-level engineering decisions.
This notebook has been designed to provide a reference to everything mentioned in class, as if they were your own personal notes.
100 Go Mistakes and How to Avoid Them puts a spotlight on common errors in Go code you might not even know you’re making. You’ll explore key areas of the language such as concurrency, testing, data structures, and more—and learn how to avoid and fix mistakes in your own projects.
Effective Go is a practical guide to writing high-quality code that’s easy to test and maintain. The book is full of best practices to adopt and anti-patterns to dodge. It explores what makes Go so dramatically different from other languages, and how you can still leverage your existing skills into writing excellent Go code. Aimed at Go beginners looking to graduate to serious Go development, you’ll write and test command line applications, web API clients and servers, concurrent programs, and more.
What do Docker, Kubernetes, and Prometheus have in common? All of these cloud native technologies are written in the Go programming language. This practical book shows you how to use Go's strengths to develop cloud native services that are scalable and resilient, even in an unpredictable environment. You'll explore the composition and construction of these applications, from lower-level features of Go to mid-level design patterns to high-level architectural considerations.
Understand Kubernetes and other orchestration systems deeply by building your own using Go and the Docker API.
Orchestration systems like Kubernetes coordinate other software subsystems and services to create a complete organized system. Although orchestration tools have a reputation for complexity, they’re designed around few important patterns that apply across many aspects of software development. Build an Orchestrator in Go reveals the inner workings of orchestration frameworks by guiding you as you design and implement your own using the Go SDK. As you create your own orchestration framework, you’ll improve your understanding of Kubernetes and its role in distributed system design. You’ll also build the skills required to design custom orchestration solutions for those times when an out-of-the-box solution isn’t a good fit.
A good resource for start Building Web Apps with Go. Free to read online.
Another awesome book for learning Web Development in Golang. Free to read online
This book was written to teach how to develop web applications in Go for people who know a bit of Go and have basic information about web applications in general. We (you) will build a webapp without using a third party framework and using as few external libraries as possible. The advantage is that you'll learn a lot when you code without a framework.
Go Web Programming teaches you how to build web applications in Go using modern design principles. You'll work through numerous examples that introduce core concepts like processing requests and sending responses, template engines, and data persistence. You'll also dive into more advanced topics, such as concurrency, web application testing and deployment both to barebones servers and PaaS providers.
Today, companies and developers need to respond to changing markets at breakneck speeds. Organizations that aren't built on highly-available, rapidly-evolving software are going the way of the dinosaurs. Cloud Native Go brings together the knowledge developers need to build massive-scale cloud applications that meet the insatiable demands of today's customers and markets.
Web Development with Go was written to teach both beginners and experts how to create and deploy a real web application. You won't be building a boilerplate TODO list, but will instead be creating and deploying a production ready photo gallery application, similar to Pixieset, from scratch. The book assumes no previous web development experience and covers everything you need to know to successfully build your own web application.
This course is an invaluable resource to help you understand Go's powerful features to build simple, reliable, secure, and efficient web applications.
Whether you are planning a new application or working in an existing monolith, this book will explain and illustrate with practical examples how teams of all sizes can start solving problems with microservices. It will help you understand Docker and Docker-Compose and how it can be used to isolate microservice dependencies and build environments. We finish off by showing you various techniques to monitor, test, and secure your microservices.
A book filled with examples on how to use Docker and Go to create the ultimate 12 Factor applications. It goes over individual steps of The Twelve-Factor App guidelines and how to implement them with Go and Docker.
This is the 3rd edition of Mastering Go. There exist many exciting new topics in this latest edition including writing RESTful services, working with the Websocket protocol, using GitHub Actions and GitLab Actions for Go projects as well as an entirely new chapter on Generics and the development of lots of practical utilities.
The book begins with an introduction to Go data structures and algorithms. You'll learn how to store data using linked lists, arrays, stacks, and queues. Moving ahead, you'll discover how to implement sorting and searching algorithms, followed by binary search trees. This book will also help you improve the performance of your applications by stringing data types and implementing hash structures in algorithm design. Finally, you'll be able to apply traditional data structures to solve real-world problems. By the end of the book, you'll have become adept at implementing classic data structures and algorithms in Go, propelling you to become a confident Go programmer.
