Go in Action, Second Edition

Go in Action, Second Edition takes advantage of your existing programming knowledge to fast-track you to Go mastery. Google Developer Expert in Go Andrew Walker has revised the original bestseller with William Kennedy, covering new language features and adding compelling real-world case studies. You’ll get a jump start on Go’s syntax and internals as you build a comprehensive and idiomatic view of Go. Skip the absolute basics, and get straight to language implementation including Go's type system, concurrency, channels, and testing. Every example in the book comes complete with working code samples for you to download and tinker with.

Shipping Go

Shipping Go shows you how to build Go-specific software development pipelines. You’ll have a basic CI/CD process up and running by the time you finish Chapter 3, along with an iterative process for designing, releasing, and revising your applications. Then, you’ll systematically upgrade your pipeline to support containerization, integration testing, semantic versioning, and automated deployment. A set of handy appendices help you translate these valuable practices to Kotlin, Python, and JavaScript applications.

Refactoring to Rust

Refactoring to Rust shows you exactly where and how to integrate Rust surgically into applications written in another language. You’ll start by reviewing Rust’s unique syntax and concepts, with special emphasis on unique language features like variable lifetime and ownership. Then, you’ll learn to use Rust to wrap dangerous code, call standard and custom Rust libraries, and even use WASM to run Rust in the browser.
