A brief history of why I do dis
I’ve recently started learning Kubernetes. It is an amazing tool that was used by Google for “running production workloads at scale internally” before they outsourced it. On diving deeper I learned that it was written in this new and mysterious (to me at least) language Go. At the time, I also started looking at other Cloud Native tools such as ArgoCD, Kubeflow, Istio, Linkerd, and a bunch more. One thing that is common to all these tools was that they were all written in ………. you guessed it Go.
Such Go Much wow
Why do 99.9% (don't quote me on this hehe) of cloud-native apps use Go? You best believe I was going to find out. And what better way to learn a new language than to implement the basics from grad school. Everyone, it's CompScience 101 time, lets get into Data Structures with Go.
Wow nice story m8, but why do you have this page?
Great question. I’m going to use this page as a sort of Table of Contents. I will update this periodically, adding links to new pages covering different topics as I get them done. This page is a living document.
Note: You dont need to know anything about go to start this tutorial. Although some elementary knowledge of data structures will help, I’m going to lay everything out as clearly and simply as I can.
