Great, encompassing tutorial! I received a lot of "aha" moments from it, which is rare these days in a YT video.

I love that its not for complete beginners, but more of a switch for language, like a cheat sheet that is clear if you have been coding in some other language

[kotzblitz]

No music, no clutter, not too easy and also not for seniors who learn machine code for fun. It’s just perfect, thanks.

It's crazy that this is enought Go knowledge to actually start building stuff right away. The simplicity 🙌

[sandeshgowdru]

You are great man you understood the need of all those intermediate level programmers who have fundamentals in coding and wish to experiment with new languages but want to learn fast....

great job man you have covered every aspect in one hour without wasting a single minute...

Awesome !!!

This tutorial was exactly what I was looking for. I was so tired of tutorials explaining me how to print to the console for the first 2 hours.
Covered exactly what I wanted to hear about a programming language, enough to make me decide if I want to learn it.

[xiaozhenlin]

I am a Google swe and need to learn Go for my current work. I can't thank you enough for such a high quality tutorial. pls keep making more videos like these❤

[shawgichan]

Coming from a background in C++, Java, and Python, I found this to be one of the best Go language tutorials I've seen on YouTube ✨✨
There was clearly a lot of effort made into making this Tutorial.

After watching this hour long video, I feel much more prepared to start building projects in Go and have gained valuable knowledge that will help me land a Go developer role.

This is an excellent resource for anyone looking to learn Go from the ground up, even if they are new to programming.👍👍

The single best "learn a programming language" video i've ever seen, incredible format!

[marwanfikrat]

I searched far and wide to quickly learn all the fundamentals of go as an experienced developer. I didn't want to sit a 20 hour course, I just wanted a quick skim of all the fundamental features of the language and it's syntax. This video is it.. Thanks mate!

[adityamore]

I truly appreciate the considerable time and effort invested in creating tutorials of this caliber. Could we possibly have more engaging Golang videos featuring projects? Your work is truly exceptional, and I want to express my sincere gratitude! Thank you so much!

[usamairfan]

To the point, no clutter and fast. Just the stuff I needed. Thanks

[adityajhunjhunwala]

This is the best tutorial for someone who already knows c or c++ or any other language, crisp, to the point.

[mrgalaxy]

Never worked in Go or seen much of Go code. After this video now I get why they call Go "nicer C". Thanks for the concise overview of the language.

[oussaber]

the fact that you managed to cover all of these concepts in 1 hour is impressive, i learned a lot. One other thing i noticed is that the resolution can be better, the font looks a bit blurry. Also one of the best explanations of go concurrency I've seen. Great job

[Kaassap]

1 hour??? I only have 7 seconds before my span of attensi

[risingmojofilter]

Phenomenal tutorial! Best coding tutorial I've seen, even. Well done! Thank you for explaining exactly what the compiler was doing under the hood. Would love to see more, perhaps on the Go modules for file I/O, command options/flags, making http requests, calling shell scripts, ways to unit test and benchmark, and anything else cool or useful.

[always-ask-why]

This tutorial is perfect! More depth than many 10 hour courses. Just the right speed and just the right depth. Thank you for creating his tutorial!

[KwakuEshun]

This is officially my favorite format for consuming tutorials as someone who is already in the field and looking to pick Go up. Great work, Alex.

[fakedevdutt]

You just gave us enough knowledge about go to get started and rest we will figure out in our way of building things which is just RIGHT!!
A perf tutorial is what I will call this.

Thanks a lot man!
