Enums in Golang: Techniques, best practices, & use cases
Posted on August 4, 2024, Level intermediate Resource Length medium
Enums provide a way to represent a set of named constants. While Go lacks a built-in enum type, developers can emulate enum-like behavior by constants/custom types. Enums play a vital role in programming languages, providing a concise and expressive way to define a set of named constants. While some languages like Java or C# offer built-in support for enums, Go takes a different approach. In Go, enums are not a native language feature, but developers have several techniques at their disposal to achieve similar functionality. By Thuoc Nguyen.

Go developer survey 2023 H2 results
Posted on March 5, 2024, Level beginner Resource Length long
In August 2023, the Go team at Google conducted our bi-annual survey of Go developers. We recruited participants via a public post on the Go blog and a randomized prompt in VS Code, resulting in 4,005 responses. We primarily focused survey questions around a few topics: general sentiment and feedback about developing with Go, technology stacks used alongside Go, how developers start new Go projects, recent experiences with toolchain error messages, and understanding developer interest around ML/AI.
