In plain English

This repository is a large collection of Go programming examples, exercises, and quizzes, over 1,000 of them, designed for learning Go by doing rather than just reading. The material was originally created to accompany a paid Go bootcamp course on Udemy, but the author made the entire collection freely available here so anyone can learn without enrolling in the course. The learning approach is hands-on: small programs with intentional problems or gaps that you fix or complete, rather than passive tutorials. Topics span Go basics through design patterns and best practices. The exercises are available in English, with Spanish and Chinese translations in progress. The content is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0, meaning it can be shared freely but not used commercially. You would use this repository if you are a programmer already familiar with at least one language who wants to learn Go by practicing on many small, concrete problems, or if you are following along with the corresponding Udemy course and want the exercise files.

I know Python and want to learn Go. Give me a study plan using the inancgumus/learngo exercises, starting with variables and types and progressing to goroutines.

Prompt 2

Show me how to clone the inancgumus/learngo repo, pick a topic folder, and run the exercises locally, including how to check my solution against the expected output.

Prompt 3

I want to practise Go slices and maps using the learngo repo. Point me at the right exercise folders and give me hints for the first three without spoiling the solution.

Prompt 4

Help me understand the design pattern exercises in the learngo repo, walk me through the factory pattern example and explain how it differs from the equivalent Python approach.
