Hey what he means is that in the past in go to make routes with the standard library was cumbersome so they made it easier in the new update. So for your react you will still need things like axios to query the API in golang.

@@steveo959 Yea the other day I was reading the docs and I was disappointed that wasn't the case. BUT what you say makes sense I understood a portion of the updates from the docs, thanks for clarifying that for me. Still researching but now between FastAPI and Go.

​@@DevlogBilltry go. It's really fun. It's so easy and it gives that performance for free. Ideology of sticking to standard ways is actually good as opposed to the shitshow in node

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

You certainly could - if you are more confident with express then I encourage you to continue using that for your projects. If you need better concurrency support, or perhaps higher performance servers with stronger typing then Go may be preferential in that scenario. As engineers, we should be picking the best languages and tools for the tasks at hand

@@Tutorialedge Yeah exactly, this is why I wanted to know if building simple APIs in GO could imrove stuff in comparison to doing so in express or python, thanks for the tips and the video, I will be diving more into GO :')

Most people struggle with my Scottish accent so I do find myself slowing down when recording 😂

gRPC is typically built on-top of TCP and is one of the highest performance methods of transportation available due to the fact you are sending far smaller amounts of information (typically) than say JSON over HTTP. In terms of simplicity, I’d 100% agree with the statement that JSON over HTTP wins every day of the week. I’ve seen both sides of the coin and definitely lean more towards JSON over HTTP for all applications that don’t demand the absolute highest of performance.

Great suggestions! I’ll add it to the list, I’ve covered some of these concepts in my courses but never on KZfaq!

I’ve not really got much material showing how to deploy to AWS but certainly will consider adding some! That being said, I’d typically expect to deploy my apps to EKS within a docker container, or perhaps use some form of container-based platform to host my apps. Deploying to EC2 instances (or servers in general) directly means you have to worry about things like load balancing and health checks yourself which adds operational toil IMO

@@Tutorialedge Thanks for the suggestion, I'll take a look at it.

The answer, as with most things in life, is it depends - Go is fantastic for building network applications and, if you're working in Cyber then that's likely going to be a huge part of it. It does currently run most of the interwebs due to it being the language that tools like Docker and Kubernetes are built in and there are a heck of a lot of start ups and tech companies that are actively trying to adopt Go. CircleCI for example has been actively pushing it's Go adoption for the past few years now and it's paying dividends with increased developer productivity. It does have a growing community and a thriving developer ecosystem so I would say it's definitely worth considering. I've been primarily a Go developer for the past 5 years now so it's served me very well in my career!

I try to generally avoid the shell shortcuts in some videos so that folks have a chance to copy what I’m doing. I usually either search through my command history or just cycle through my last commands when I’m trying to find a command. I hadn’t come across Esc-. though but thanks for sharing!

@@SleepeJobs thanks 👍

Thanks for your comment! That's a great suggestion for a standalone video topic, I'll add it to the queue!

Agreed, you have no idea the state of someone's shell history and if they blindly copy even the shortcuts it could be disaster. Better to be explicit.
