Go, the open-source programming language originally developed at Google,
makes it easy to build simple, reliable, and efficient software. It’s a
fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically
typed, interpreted language. Its concurrency mechanisms, coupled with
modern hardware, makes Go an effective general purpose programming
language for a wide range of applications such as, system programming
and embedded systems, desktop development and distributed systems,
backend services for mobile and web, DevOps, and cloud application
development.
Web Development with Go will teach you how to develop scalable
real-world web apps, RESTful services, and backend systems with Go. The
book starts off by covering Go programming language fundamentals as a
prerequisite for web development. After a thorough understanding of the
basics, the book delves into web development using the built-in package,
net/http. With each chapter you’ll be introduced to new concepts for
gradually building a real-world web system.
The book further shows you how to integrate Go with other technologies.
For example, it provides an overview of using MongoDB as a means of
persistent storage, and providesan end-to-end REST API sample features
MongoDB as well. Developers looking for a full-fledged web development
framework for building web apps will be introduced to Beego. The book
then moves on to demonstrate how to deploy web apps to the cloud using
the Google Cloud platform. Finally, the book introduces Docker, a
revolutionary container technology platform for deploying containerized
Go web apps to the Cloud.
Web Development with Go provides:
- Basic fundamentals for building real-world web apps in Go.
- Through coverage of prerequisites and practical code examples.
- Demo web apps for attaining a deeper understanding of web development
- A reference REST API app which can be used to build scalable real-world backend services in Go.
- A through demonstration of deploying web apps to the Cloud using the Google Cloud platform, and Docker for deploying Go Servers.
In totality, Go is a high-performance language while providing greater
level of developer productivity, therefore Web Development with Go
equips you with the necessary skills and knowledge required for
effectively building robust and efficient web apps by leveraging the
features of Go, and find yourself become the sought after person on Go
among your peers and employers alike, in no time.
