Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, Helm ... These tools may mean something to you, you may use them on a daily basis, but did you know that they were made in Go? Indeed, the Go language is a language that has been on the rise in recent years, used to make microservices, cross-compilation, by companies requiring high performance and resilience.

It is a practical language, easy to learn, typed and with a rich ecosystem.

And it's true, creating an HTTP server or even a CLI application in Go only takes a few minutes. It's perfect ... or almost!

It is also easy to make mistakes in this language ;-).

We will see in this talk, through my experiences developing production applications for large companies, tips and common errors, their solutions and how to avoid them.
