Go Programming

Gorgo, Queen of Sparta's free, evolving Go programming textbooks.

There are lots of programming textbooks out there, but often they’re either mediocre, super advanced, or out of date. It’s hard to find an excellent up-to-date textbook for the latest language versions that works well in our classes. We believe there will always be a niche for free programming textbooks that evolve with the languages.
