GoLang for TypeScript Developers

A repository to help TypeScript developers learn Go, comparing code examples in Go and TypeScript.

Introduction

Welcome to the GoLang for TypeScript Developers repository! This repository aims to assist TypeScript developers in learning the Go programming language by providing side-by-side code examples in Go and TypeScript.

Whether you're an experienced TypeScript developer or just starting out, this repository will help you understand the syntax, concepts, and idiomatic patterns of Go, drawing parallels with TypeScript.

Repository Structure

The repository is structured as follows:

• arrays_slices.go and arrays.ts: Comparison of array usage in Go and TypeScript.
• class.go and class.ts: Comparison of class definitions and methods in Go and TypeScript.
• function.go and function.ts: Comparison of functions in Go and TypeScript.
• and much more...
• README.md: You are here! This document provides an overview of the repository.

Getting Started

To begin with the code examples, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/oliveirabalsa/golang-for-ts-devs.git

2. Navigate to the repository directory:

   cd golang-for-ts-devs

3. Explore the code examples in each file, such as arrays_slices.go and arrays.ts, and compare the Go and TypeScript code side by side.

4. Run the code examples to see the output and understand the differences between Go and TypeScript. Simply enter the desired folder and execute:

   Golang

   go run *.go

   TypeScript

   npx ts-node arrays.ts
