What you will learn

Apply all your knowledge of basics of Golang to build real-world projects

Understand how concepts like structs, slices, packages and libraries are used in the real worl

Cement what you've learned and learn new things

Just a great course to augment and supplement your golang learning

Build a great portfolio of projects that you can show-off as a golang developer.

Why take this course?

According to many industry experts, Golang is THE most important skill to learn in 2022 as more and more companies are using it to build awesome technology - from infrastructure technologies to microservices to serverless programs powering entire SAAS products.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This course, 3 Simple Golang Projects! - Learn GO By Building! is the fastest way to start applying your basic golang knowledge in the real-world and actually learning how projects are actually built.

In this totally hands-on course, there's -

  • No boring theory

  • No long introductions

  • No beating around the bush or wasting time

  • Just pure coding on the projects and learning from actually doing - not just watching

This is a code-along course and meant to be practiced along-side learning. I encourage all my students to stop procrastination and just "Eat the Frog". This course is to get your feet wet by building projects.

This course, unlike others, goes hands-on, in-depth, behind the scenes of actual projects, all you need is golang installed on your machine and a basic, running knowledge of golang (atleast having completed the go tour) and everything else will be taken care of.

For this course, we will build three awesome real-world projects that you can -

  • Show on your resume to get selected in interviews

  • Use the base code to create other projects

  • Build better and deeper knowledge of GO

  • And lastly, show off to your friends :)

After finishing this course, you'll be able to approach building new projects with Golang with a better toolset.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Golang is -

  1. Fast

  2. Extremely Light

  3. Extremely Scalable

  4. Very easy to understand and learn

  5. Super easy to debug

  6. Has built-in concurrency

  7. Great frameworks are being created (GO-Fiber is very similar to ExpressJS, but waayyyyyy faster)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was created by geniuses working at Google and many senior developers are now finding great value by learning GO. Here are some of the benefits -

1. There is a huge scarcity of quality GO developers in the market, so you can get hired QUICK!

2. The pay-packages and salaries for GO developers are some of the highest in the world (way higher than NodeJS, React Native developers)

3. GO has many applications in Web 3.0 world and with Machine Learning and Big Data (to work with large amounts of data you need a technology that has concurrency and parallelism and is also extremely light-weight)

4. GO is extremely versatile - You can do some serious software engineering with it along with writing low level code like manipulating network requests, hacking etc. So once you know GO, you don't need to learn a whole lot of languages.

Kinda meh, i really don't like the way its presented, feels it's all over the place the way he leaves incomplete code and comes back later to it, i prefer to finish a function/type/struct and then go do the next step, makes more sense to me, so if you are like me, just know that.

The author explain the materials in a detailed way. The application and code are easy to understand with the diagram made. Yet, the explanation is way too fast sometimes.

Pretty good course, very practical and emphasized in the concepts that we really need more detail about it

More time was spent talking about your VS Code set up than the finer details of code. The Google Trends project was pretty rushed. It didn't bother exploring the API data. Now the project is out of date and the API data is different, but since you didn't actually explain how to parse it (or what was being parsed), we're on our own to debug.

I have been enjoying this course since day 1...and I would like to say that the way Akhil sir explains every details is just amazing and hope he will come up with more projects like this or more advance so that we can learn more about golang..thank you

The course is a good entry point for people who wants to get some ideas for the projects, however, the learning style of the instructor requires some improvements. What I mean by that is the whole code is being written till the end and then we test it out in "Run the program" section which makes it very challenging to get a grasp on the concepts, so maybe try to engage the learner more by showing the output of what we've built so far through running it in the terminal.

Ahkil is amazing! ? His teaching style is exactly what I need, which is to get hands-on real-world coding experience with an ACTUAL project instead of hours and hours of theory. I need to "do the things" and this course met that need perfectly. Thank you Ahkil!! ?

This course is quite good for doing a hands on practice of golang concepts instead of having theoretical knowledge. The first two projects were good and explained thoroughly. The third project is very interesting and covers important golang concepts used which makes go standout from the other languages. However the third project needs some more explanations with Draw.io diagrams like first two projects regarding following:- 1. When we create a newRequest using http.NewRequest("GET", translateURL, nil) explain why are we passing nil 2. While forming query using query.Add("sl", body.SourceLang) explain what is "sl", "tl" , "s" like is it specifically expected by the google api? 3. While ParsingJson in video 70 why did we use ParseJsonBuffer and not json.Unmarshal? 4. The denesting part can be explained little better with help of visual diagrams. 5. Whenever using 3rd party library like gabs or flag show just give a quick briefup about the package and what are the commonly used functions in those package. Some time could have been spent on flag and gabs. 6. The google translate api which we used, open the url and show it on google apis site like what params it expects and what it returns.

Having to define functions and types that are not being used makes it confusing to tie the nuts together. The planning section of the course did not do a great job of explaining what needs to be done. So I believe the author should have worked on getting one functionality at a time before progressing to define new functions. His approach in this section forces you to have an overall understanding of the project before starting which makes it tedious to follow through. Plus the nutrition calculation is not something everyone already knows. I find it stressful following through. The first project in this course has got to be the worse I have ever seen. The course gets better at the later projects, but I didn't get any satisfaction from this course. I could have as well seen all his youtube videos and gained this knowledge. Nothing special about it.

Well done Akhil. This is the far best course on Udemy for beginners! The teacher explains every step and concept of how to build your project. Hope to see more from you on Udemy.

Apart from the first project I have nothing negative to say about the Tutorial. I've thoroughly enjoyed the second and third project and I'm satisfied with the explanations also. But the main USP of this course is you get to know how to structure your code like true professionals. The content and the explanations are to the point. And I think this course is a must buy for all golang beginners. Let's hope the author also publish courses related to GRPC soon.
