Golang

Explain the positives and shortcomings of Go. Develop a business case for why a business should move over to Go. Define what the Go language is.

Set up and install Go on a local machine. Store values by declaring variables. Write code that executes under defined conditions. Evaluate values by using comparison operators. Write groups of related statements to perform a common, specific task. Create an array to store multiple values of the same type. Create a flexible, dynamically-sized array. Iterate over values across data structures.

Create a collection of unordered key-value pairs. Group data together by building a typed collection of fields that reflect traditional classes. Create blueprints for method sets. Build for concurrency by leveraging Goroutines.

Use HTTP methods for asynchronous requests to a REST API. Provide a server implementation using the net/http package. Handle HTTP requests sent to defined paths by using the Handler interface. Implement an HTTP request router. Serve static HTML via a backend server.

Build the backend for a CRM (Customer Relationship Management) tool used for managing customers. Learners will use all of the programming constructs and commands of Golang to implement the required functions to support getting a list of all customers, getting data for a single customer, adding a customer, updating a customer's information, and removing a customer. All of this will be implemented through the Go http package so it is web accessible.
