Quick Start

package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    fmt.Println("Hello, World!")

    ch := make(chan string)
    go func() {
        ch <- "from goroutine"
    }()

    msg := <-ch
    fmt.Println(msg)
}

Core Concepts

Goroutines

Lightweight threads managed by the Go runtime.

go doSomething()

Channels

Typed conduits for communication between goroutines.

Interfaces

Implicitly implemented. If a struct has the methods, it implements the interface.

Best Practices

Do:

Handle errors explicitly (check if err != nil)
Use gofmt to format code
Keep extensive comments for public APIs
Use context for cancellation and timeouts

Don't:

Ignore errors (using _) blindly
Use panic/recover for normal error handling
Create large interfaces (keep them small)
