Why I switched from JS to Golang (As a Javascript Developer)

Javascript is a flexible and powerful language, but here are few reasons why I made the switch to using Go for my serious projects…

This guy does coding videos while in bed. He wins the Internet.

[amansagar]

bruh you are the first guy recording lying on a bed, lmao it's so original keep that up, loved it

[dilsmedia]

The most relaxing introduction to Go ever 😀

[rckinfirepower]

Bruh you're programming in bed? That's next level

[schadough]

I love your teaching vibe, you get straight to use cases and how they’re tackled and not a lot of content creators do that. Keep it up bro 😎

2020: Not wearing pants on a zoom call.
2021: Giving a presentation from bed.
What's next for our cultural evolution?

Hey 2-years-ago-Ryan: it's mid-2023 and I'm using your videos every couple of days to keep me going-- your cool cadence and immediately practical vibe are like pure programming sugar as I slog through onboarding into a new complex project with three new languages (like, I like learning, and I'm okay with being confused and lost and wrong a lot, but it does wear me down). Anyway, you're the light at the end of the tunnel with your genuine excitement and can-do pragmatism. Plus, doing it all while chilling, a hero to us all. Thanks, Ryan!

Man u are my supermodel. There is no such cooler thing than coding and making a video while lying on the bed. SUBSCRIBED

[sinayeganeh]

Nice! IMO Js with Go can be the best (React in front-end & Golang as restfull API in back-end)

[MirkoVukusic]

Laying in bed, so relaxing voice, concise and clear, ... Man add a cocktail and it's like a vacation watching you

[mgjulesdev]

Nice video. Enjoy your journey as a Gopher.
For those curious, goroutines are like little independent processes multiplexed on threads. Creating and destroying a thread is expensive but goroutines are super lightweight and cheap to create and destroy.

Golang is so easy to learn. I love this language. If i have to choose close compiled alternative to js then it definitely would be golang.

[sanzhar.danybayev]

Bro, the way you chill while coding is awesome 😂

[WaldirBorbaJunior]

From PHP to Java to NodeJS to Python finally GO. Now I'm in paradise.

[jimxu]

I think you are just saying “I am switching from fronted dev to backend dev “

[gnumusic-brian]

The best under 10 minute intro I've seen yet.

[alejandro.p]

These aspects you mention are what I like about Kotlin

[BrenonAraujo]

I started to learn golang a couple of weeks ago for almost the same reasons, good observations, and damn you were so smooth. code & chill lmao

[ianno]

Appreciate the vid. I'm a little curious about Go as a Node dev, but haven't worked on anything that has made me use it just yet. Everything in the vid is reasonably reproducible in Node. The TypeScript typechecker is really slow, so your last point is resonating pretty hard. That's why kdy1 is porting the TypeScript compiler to Go, and I can't wait

[brnoliveira-li]

Learned more about Go in 8 min with your video than the two hours I've spent with some random tuts found on google. Tks!
