Go 1 Hour Boot Camp

"Note: Meet & greet begins around 5:15 with the presentation starting at 6 PM.

Go is a language initially developed at Google and rapidly becoming the native language for the cloud and distributed computing. This will be a 1 hour boot camp (or longer) where we go through a Go install, followed by 3 short programs to write in go that would include:

• Your first command line program

• Your first web server

• Basic Concurrency

Be sure to bring your laptop, as this is a hands-on session. If you'd like to get your dev environment setup before hand, check out the Before You Come to Class (https://github.com/corylanou/go-1-hour-boot-camp#before-you-come-to-class) on https://github.com/corylanou/go-1-hour-boot-camp .
