GET GOING WITH GO WHY GO

Go is a fast, secure, reliable language that has experienced immense growth over the past few years. Created by Google, the goals of the Go project were to eliminate the slowness and clumsiness of software development, thereby making the process more productive and scalable.

While it has great features like compilation speed and built in concurrency, the main feature that makes Go special is its simplicity. Unlike Python or Ruby, which “allow” you to write easy to read code, in Go you have no other choice.

WHY US Go has been steadily gaining popularity, and many developers have begun to take an interest in the language. Moreover, Go is currently used in production servers by many well-known companies such as Dropbox, SendGrid, and Google itself. However, the reality is that Go developers are hard to find, not to mention real experts.

This lack of professionals inspired us to create a team of specialists that not only were familiarized with the language, but truly comprehended what Go is, how and when it should be used, its ins and outs, its pros and cons, etc. As the demand grows, more of our developers start to focus solely on Go. This is the direction we are taking and where liteByte is headed.
