Who is this for?

The beginner section is for new developers coming to Go. No programming experience needed.

The advanced section is for developers who have worked in Go and looking to learn more.

Businesses transitioning to Go

Businesses that want to ensure their engineers have a base level knowledge of Go

What You Need to Know?

No programming experience needed. We'll cover the basics

IDE such as Visual Studio code. We'll go over how to install and set this up for Go.

Description
Golang Engineers are one of the highest paid disciplines in the software industry. According to GlassDoor (10/15/2023), The average annual salary of a Go engineer is $134k per year. Even entry level Golang engineers can start around 100k. This is before any stock options or reserved stock units are factored in.Â IÂ can attest to these numbers personally.

Hello! I'm Nick Phillips and I've been a software engineer for over 19 years. IÂ have developed in Go for over 9 years. IÂ have worked for multiple startup companies that went off to be acquired and IÂ have also worked for Fortune 500 companies.

Golang is being used more and more in many companies. The simplicity of the language and performance are major drivers to its adoption. Large codebases can be read and understood by recent hires to become productive very quickly. IÂ have interviewed, hired, and trained engineers coming from another language.

This course will teach you from the ground up how to code in Golang (Go for short).Â

This course is for:Â
New developers who have never coded before.
Frontend engineers looking to connect their Javascript framework to Go
Backend engineers coming from another language such as C++, Python, Javascript, Java, and PHP.
Experienced Go developers looking to level up their skills with deep dives into advanced topics.

I will teach you basic concepts of Go such as how to get your environment setup and run some basic programs.Â Â We'll build upon these concepts and introduce real world practical examples of using Go in a professional environment.

In the intermediate section, I'll teach you the core components of Go that will make you a highly productive engineer. These topics cover pointers, structs, arrays, slices and maps.

In the advanced section, we'll dive into more complicated topics such as goroutines and channels.Â In the advanced section, IÂ show slides to teach the theoretical concepts and then we dive into practical uses and coding exercises. These features, if used correctly, really make the language show its true power.Â

Who this course is for:
The beginner section is for new developers coming to Go. No programming experience needed.
The advanced section is for developers who have worked in Go and looking to learn more.

Instructor's Courses

I have been in the software industry since 2004 after completing my BS degree in Computer Science at Michigan Technological University. I have worked for small startups to large multi-billion dollar corporations. I also have experience in many industries including aerospace, defense, telecommunication, financial services, high tech, blockchain and retail. My primary language is Go/Golang. I have been using this language since 2014. Previously, I used C/C++ for high performance computing and Python for everything else.
