What you should know

“

- [Instructor] Before starting this course, there are some concepts that you should already be familiar with. First, I'm going to assume that you are already familiar with the Go programming language. You don't need to be an expert, but since we're going to be writing Go code in this course, you should already be familiar with the basics of the language. If you need to brush up on your core Go skills, then I suggest watching the Learning Go course before starting this one. And you should also be familiar with using a code editor along with your platform's terminal. I'm going to be using Visual Studio Code in this course because it's a great editor and it's free and it has great support for the Go programming language. Now, you can use any editor that you want for this course, but if you want to use Visual Studio Code and you don't already have it, then you can download it from code.visualstudio.com, and there are great courses here that you can watch to learn how to use Visual Studio in it's all full power and glory. Throughout the course, I'm going to be referring to the Go package documentation, which you can find at this link, and I would suggest having this open in a browser window to follow along with me as we go through the course. So, that's pretty much all you need to know to start the course. So, once you feel comfortable with these requirements, you're ready to get started.
