Belfast Gophers

We're back! We are extremely grateful to DailyPay for sponsoring our long delayed first meetup of the year.

At this event, we have two speakers

First up is Tiġearnán Carroll, with lookatmego

When the current options aren't up to your liking, sometimes you have to write the solution yourself!

This talk covers a journey into writing a TUI tool in Golang using BubbleTea, which also allows its users to extend functionality by writing their own plugins.

Second we have Simon Hewitt with NATS us nai

Want to send messages but are terrified of Kafka? Want to use events but desperately want to not learn Java?

NATS is a collection of clients and servers which makes it easy to send and receive messages across microservices, from IoT edges and even within your single Go binary. We'll check out how to implement some use cases, learn about the benefits and mark out where the sharp edges are

We have a little space for some Go related lightning talks, so if you're interested just reach out via the Meetup Group!

See you there
