Learn Go

Go is one of the fastest-growing languages in the world, and it's the language Boot.dev's own backend is written in! In this course, you'll learn it by building parts of a make-believe SaaS app: Textio, which programmatically sends SMS (text messages) to customers.

The code on the right is a complete program:

package main tells the Go compiler this code is a standalone program, not a library for other programs to import.
import "fmt" pulls in the fmt package from the standard library so we can print to the console.
func main() is the entry point.

This course assumes you're already familiar with programming basics in at least one other language. If you're brand brand new to coding, start with Python for beginners instead.

Assignment

Edit the code to print starting server... to the console instead of edit me.

Capitalization and punctuation matter!
