The idea behind this book is to help you learn by doing. Together we'll walk through the start-to-finish build of a web application - from structuring your workspace, through to session management, authenticating users, securing your server and testing your application.
Building a complete web application in this way has several benefits. It helps put the things you're learning into context, it demonstrates how different parts of your codebase link together, and it forces us to work through the edge-cases and difficulties that come up when writing software in real-life. In essence, you'll learn more than you would by just reading Go's (great) documentation or standalone blog posts.
By the end of the book you'll have the understanding - and confidence - to build your own production-ready web applications with Go.
Although you can read this book cover-to-cover, it's designed specifically so you can follow along with the project build yourself.
Break out your text editor, and happy coding!
