Course Description

Course Title The Go programming language skill offers students the opportunity to learn the Go programming language and to acquire the knowledge necessary to create and deliver applications written in the Go programming language. Students will learn to install and work in an program environment needed for the development of applications written in the Go programming language within the Visual Studio Code editor and operating system of their preference. Basic concepts of the Go programming language and specifics that make Go the language of choice for developing general applications will be addressed.
