Go: Generics, Extensibility, and the Future of Go in Open Source Programming | O'Reilly Media

Go is now over a decade old, but that doesn't mean it's showing its age. As open source projects across industries have adopted Go, the language has continued to grow and change to meet their needs. Recent and forthcoming additions to the language, such as generics and modules, will alter Go programming dramatically. What do these developments mean for adoption? (Why, for example, is Go the language chosen by so many CNCF projects?) And what features do expert Go developers see as the backbone of the future of programming?

Join us to hear expert insight into how the Go language is changing open source development, what makes it right for so many open source projects, and how developers can use Go's unique new features to build secure, reliable, and efficient applications.

About the OSCON Superstream Series: Each day in the four-part OSCON Superstream Series covers a different programming language and its ecosystem, with unique sessions including keynotes from language luminaries, debates on controversial topics, and hands-on coding talks. And they're packed with insights from innovators and the latest tools and technologies to help you stay ahead of it all.
