Welcome to our October 2024 Boston Go meetup at Capital One's Cambridge Office

We are looking for speakers for the next few months! Please reach out to us on Gophers Slack in #boston or via https://papercall.io/bostongolang to sign up to speak. It can be short or long, and it can be beginner, intermediate, or advanced--all talks are welcome! Some talk ideas to get your creativity flowing:

• An optimization you did at work
• How to use an open-source Go library
• A Go utility package you built as a side project
• Something new you learned about Go itself

And remember, the organizers are here to help you prepare. Whether that's idea formation, slide review, or rehearsing, we are here to help! Contact us at bostongolang@gmail.com if you need help with coming up with a talk idea or preparing or presenting your talk!

Title: Terminal UI Apps from the Ground Up in Bubble Tea (previously given at GopherCon)
Speaker: Andy Haskell
Description: Bubble Tea is a Go framework that enables building apps in the terminal (TUIs) with convenient features like arrow-key and even mouse navigation, adding “wow factor” with animations, and managing multiple pages. And its developers have built an ecosystem of Go packages that might make development in Bubble Tea feel familiar if you’ve done frontend web development. The best part, though, is that because Bubble Tea’s core interface has just three methods representing the frontend-famous Elm Architecture, it’s conducive to managing as much or as little complexity as your TUI needs to have.

For this talk, we will look at how to build a plant-watering app from the ground up, starting with a simple menu and ending with an app with multiple UI components and two pages. By the end of this talk, you should have an idea of how to start building an app in Bubble Tea with multiple components.
