This week I talk with Andy Williams about the Fyne toolkit. It's impressive how much you can do with Fyne targeting mostly all platform where you'd want your application to run. In a world where web is getting a little bit out of hand, it's refreshing to see that desktop still have its place in the software world.

John is proposing learning Rust to enhance Gophers programming knowledge. I do enjoy learning new thing personally, Rust always has been or at least seems to required an extra effort to get started with. John is trying to make it more approachable.

After last episode with Templ maintainers I was really pumped to try Templ and see if it would work for me. Without spoiling too much I believe it would have been easier to start from scratch with Templ vs. trying to migrate an existing project.
This led me to try and see if I could add static analysis of my templates in my library tpl. I don't really have a PoC yet, but kind of getting close to it. If everything continue I should be able to capture errors in using of wrong field in template, like typos in field name that are caught at runtime at this moment.

Getting out there, showing what you're currently doing / learning, starting a blog, creating content to help other software engineers, those are all good way to distinguish yourself. You might want to consider speaking at conferences as well. In this episode we're talking with Matt Boyle about the what, why, how of getting your first conference talk accepted.

I'm joined by Marian Montagnino this week. We talk about CLI in Go, programming languages. Java and Elm mentioned, be warned .;) and other tech related stuff. Marian wrote a book on building CLI in Go and presented multiple talks at Go conferences.
We had some connectivity glitches during our call making it challenging. You won't here the internet cuts as we did, but the lag is real, sorry about that.

I started a monolith-style web application couple of weeks ago and force to admit that Go is more and more fun to use where I was considering more like Django or Rails before.
For me there was still the templates aspect that needed to be fixed, and I wrote a library for that. The other major place where I was not enjoying myself was the database code, found it way to repetitive for application that had a lot of SQL tables.
We're in a very good place at the moment and the benefits of having a compiled language to build heavy backend web application is great.

I've restarted active development on my open source Go backend server API StaticBackend. For a long time I wanted to make its CLI size smaller, and I decided to use Go's plugin package to extract a functionality that used a dependency that was accounting for more than 50% of its 170 MB. Go plugin were the solution I decided to use for this and I explain the problem and the solution in this episode.

I've been building SaaS since 2008 and built two with Go. Big spoiler, the technology you choose has a little impact in the early stage of a software business. There's some danger to over-engineer and use complex construct while you still does not even know if what you're building is desirable. Heck, you don't even know what you're building at first.
I'm giving some example of common traps and pitfails technical founder tend to fail into when jumping into a startup venture for first times. And yes, times is plural, because it takes multiple attempt before learning lessons.

I'm joined by Mark Carpenter, the maintainer of EbitenUI, a UI library you may use with your Ebitengine Go game. Game dev is slowly making its way to Go with game library like Ebitengine and Raylib. The nice thing about Ebitengine is that it's built in Go, have great cadance in its development and is simple to use.
EbitenUI is a UI library that allows you to build UI for your games. It's a simple library that integrates smoothly with the programming model of Ebitengine games.

My upcoming SaaS product at first wasn't suppose to be rolled out as a product, but was for my own usage. Turns out as I was using it and selling my online courses that it appears to me as being fairly usefull and could compete against existing course selling platform.
The hic is that it wasn't built as a SaaS in mind, so I have to deploy one application per customer. It's completely multi-tenant. To help with automating the deployment of a new tenant, I wrote and orchestrator with agents to facilitate the deployment of a new application. I thought this part could be interesting to hear about as it's written in Go.

In this episode I talk with John Arundel about cryptography in Go. John wrote a great book on the subject called Explore Go: Cryptography.
Security is a growing concerns and you should up your game as a Go programmer. We're lucky to have such a solid crypt package in the standard library. I'd encourage you to get familiar with it if you haven't yet.

In 2021 Twilio sent a termination email on their Fax services. I was consulting as the CTO in a credit bureau that was in the start of an acquisition process with Equifax Canada. There was just no time to "waste" on changing provider and rewriting this part of the system to satisfy the new provider API.
Would have been grand if the provider would have offered a shim that replicated Twilio's API and map that to their own API. Imagine how many companies needed to rewrite this part at the same time. Offering this as the provider that receives X thousands new customers would have been a superb engineering experience.
So maybe we can apply this concept internally as well. When a team needs to introduce breaking changes, a good solution might be for them to provide a shim over the old API so no other teams need to do anything.
This is obviously a tad dangerous and might introduce some technical debt. But as everything, it depends.
