⭐TALKS

▪ Generics Draft Proposal Review - Bill Kennedy
With the release of the new draft proposal for generics, Go. inches closer to having a version of generics in the language. It's important that the community as a whole agrees this new language feature feels like Go and will add value to the language and the applications we build.

In this talk, Bill Kennedy will review the major aspects of the draft proposal with code samples. He will spend time teaching different aspects of the new syntax and show how generics can help make Go programs more readable when it's reasonable and practical to use generics. After the presentation will ask questions to the group to get feedback and opinions.

▪ Pac Man from Scratch - Daniela Petruzalek
In this talk you will learn how to code Pac Man clone that runs on the terminal, with emojis! This talk is not just about the game, but to present a tutorial that can be used self-paced or as a workshop, to teach yourself and others the basics of the Go programming language. If you are either interested in Go, or game programming, or both, this tutorial is a nice and fun way to learn new things.
