A Tour of Go (golang) for the C# Developer

[@VinuP2023]

Jeremy please start making more of these C# and .net videos in youtube. You are the best teacher :)

[@Steve-qw3bx]

Thanks for taking the time to make this - appreciated

[@idis5702]

Hello Jeremy, good the see you again, please do more videos about c#, thank you.

[@salamander1782]

Thank you for the video Jeremy! Hope you come back to KZbin someday.

[@4cxm002]

Jeremy, you are incredible. Thanks for doing this.

[@rezataba6204]

VSCode Autosave function might be helpful. Thanks for the great tutorial. I'm a dotnetCore Angular Mongodb developer. Do you recommend I switch to Go?

[@Aloysius1966]

Excellent presentation! He not only explains how, but also why.

[@nileshtiwalkar9437]

Thank you Jeremy, could you please make .net core series on KZbin

[@deve1212]

Wow Jeremy back. Your my one of the my fav. programmer.

[@joshwyse1761]

This is fantastic, incredibly helpful. Thank you!

[@himitsumonban]

This is a great video, and I wish someone would do the exact opposite. I'm a Go programmer struggling to find a good introduction to C# that doesn't start with the absolute basics.

[@MichaelAuerswald]

This was a really nice overview and, also very important, excellent pacing!

[@LucasRibeiro-lx8ve]

Thanks for sharing Jeremy, this is simple amazing, pure charity with the comunity

[@Davuser]

thanks Jeremy, it is very interesting the approach that GO uses compared to C #

[@AceTheCloud]

@Jeremy when the next one of C# -> GoLang is coming..

[@woozles182]

This is soooo Helpful, Jeremy. Thank you :o)

[@iampervaze]

Long time Jeremy! Welcome back :)

[@heldim92]

This was a great video! Thank you very much for your time! Currently, I'm in a huge doubt between C# and Go with the sole purpose of developing the cross-platform backend part for my Flutter web and especially mobile (android & iOS) applications. I'm afraid of chosing C# and finding myself with little space to use Flutter, because everything is apparently too interconnected in a .net or .net core ecosystem and Flutter obviously is not part of it... Would you say it is worth it to pick C# knowing that I will be using Dart's Flutter with it, or Go is a better option, given that I will not use all of the tools proposed by Microsoft? ***All of these were just perceptions of mine, please correct me if I'm wrong!

[@Qrzychu92]

what did you end up choosing? are you happy with the decision?

[@rezataba6204]

I am an Angular developer and use dotnetCore for my logic side with MongoDb, all on Linux. They work perfectly for me even though Angular is by Google and MongoDb is not by Microsoft. Love the rich mature environments of these technologies and there's nothing I can't do enterprise level. I don't know Flutter but if its a front end framework you won't have any issues if you use dotnet as your api side.

[@heldim92]

@@rezataba6204 Thank you very much! Indeed, I realized this later. Your experience-based insight was very welcome to reinforce what I learned from my experiences too, since I made that question! Golang is from Google too and, for that, I thought there there could be somehow a better compatibility with flutter, but not really. By the way, do you if .NET or .NETCORE are no longer proprietary now?

[@heldim92]

@@Qrzychu92 ​ I'm sorry for almost 1 year of delay, somehow I didn't see this notification and just found it now while reading the history, coincidently. I ended up choosing Go, not because it was necessarily a better choice, but because of the type of applications/companies I wanted to envolve myself with...I believe this should be the main engine for your decisions. From my research at the time, any of those languages would suit you well, generally speaking, and I highly suggest you to try both of them, in case you haven't already! Go is just "cleaner", but might lose in terms of market possibilities maybe for the same reason, once .NET or .NETCORE simply have built-in ways to deal with virtually everything...so perhaps you should take this into consideration too. In the end, the advantages of Goland are real and strong, but very, very specific and geared towards a very specific niche of problems.

[@moc2130]

Very interesting video, ive been a c# programmer from beginning and was looking for a good tutorial on go, thanks, can you do some more? I am a lazy learner :)

[@jeremybytes]

I'm glad it was useful. There is a series of articles linked from this GitHub repo (scroll to the bottom of the README): github.com/jeremybytes/go-for-csharp-dev The code download has several CodeTours (CodeTour is an extension for Visual Studio Code) that provide annotations for a Go code project.

[@Pouya..]

Brilliant thank you so much that’s what i was looking for

[@nycdotnet4751]

Hey Jeremy - long time no see. Thanks for a great video.

[@kalek1]

Thank you very much Jeremy!

[@carlosgarcialalicata]

The older I get, the more I appreciate opinionated languages

[@ImranAliyev]

Excellent explanation! Thank you!

[@TeamJMW26]

fantastic intro

[@jamesportrais3946]

Wow - I just found you by searching my name. Of course I don't use my natural name on herespace, but holy shit - we couldn't be more different. I was born on the last day of 1971, and I'm guessing you're close. I'm not nearly as camp as you, but people often mistake me as being gay. I imagine that I'm shorter than you at 5'8" probably because my mother was a shit cook. I'm a strawberry blonde and will hit 50 at the turn of this year. Yikes!

[@vegasvault8280]

Red Dwarf! WOOOOO

[@KDOERAK]

I enjoyed it - thx!

[@StefanKo1224]

Is c# outdated today to learn?

[@jeremybytes]

Not at all. C# is being updated with new features. C# 8 came out last year, and C# 9 is coming in November. I'm not encouraging people to switch from C# to Go. I'm encouraging C# developers to look at other languages so that we can learn different techniques and approaches to problems.
