Google Developer Group Bergen (GDG)

Join us for an introduction to Google's increasingly popular programming language Go. This workshop will walk you through the absolute basics of Go; what it is, what you can do with it, how the syntax is, what's in the standard library. We will also dive a little deeper into some concepts where Go differs from the rest of the crowd and finally we'll finish with some hands on tutorials where you can try out Go for yourself. Prerequisites - Bring a laptop. - Make sure you have an editor or IDE you're comfortable with. VS Code or IntelliJ are good options. - Git and a browser are also nice to have. - Be at least somewhat comfortable with using a terminal. If you're feeling adventurous install Go and set it up following these directions: https://golang.org/doc/install Agenda 17:30 - Food and networking 18:00 - An introduction to Go 20:00 - Beer at place to be named later!
