I wanted to start a blog for quite some time now and as of today, it’s finally online.

Owning a blog seems to be a good way to connect with fellow gophers, share interesting programming adventures and meet new friends.

The blog itself is just a static site, generated with Hugo and short webpack script to build a custom template. Until so far, Hugo was a real pleasure to use and it is probably the most user-friendly and best documented Go project that I have seen so far. Well done!

I hope you will enjoy the upcoming blog posts.

Topics

As you might expect, this blog will be mostly about the Go, the programming language. I am a lucky developer who is able to use this phenomenal language on a daily base and I would like to share my adventures with you.

Beside a lot of case-studies, I am also going to publish tutorials and other programming related tips. I am already planning an in-depth article serie about concurrent programming in Go, another topic I am really enjoying.

There will also be quite a lot of articles about system administration since that is also part of my job and I would like to share this knowledge too.

Occasionally I will also write about some fun stuff, like reviews of interesting books or games (mostly tabletop or board-games).

So, to recap, that’s is what you can expect from this blog:

  • Go tips and tutorials
  • in-depth article serie about concurrent programming
  • lots of case studies
  • some system administration tutorials (Linux only)
  • book reviews
  • fun stuff (tabletop games, …)
