Define and call functions across scopes in Go. Declare variables with short and explicit forms, and understand module versus inner module visibility, including public versus private names.
Explain Go error handling through a divide by zero example, returning values and errors, creating custom error types, wrapping errors, and using interface checks over concrete types.
Explore Go strings and the strings package, learn that a string stores UTF-8 bytes, with multi-byte characters; see immutability, concatenation with +, and using strings.Join and strings.Split on slices.
Build and query go maps as fast key value stores, learn to create them with make, iterate with range, delete keys, and handle missing entries with the ok check.
Explore how closures in Go let functions carry data, be returned, and be passed around, with examples like add three and testing with go test.
Explore reading from standard input in Go, using a scanner for line-by-line input and a raw mode reader for per-key input, with defer-based resource cleanup.
Explore channels in Go for passing data between threads, using a buffered channel to coordinate workers and avoid deadlock by matching the finished count to started threads.
Learn to read blob data from a database by retrieving an image from the items table using a writer to stream bytes and handle errors in Go.
Implement a Go search items function that queries the database for items by name or description, returning a slice of itemInfo with id, giver id, name, and description.
Update items in the database by setting the receiver id for a given item id, including error handling and addressing race conditions with a single worker thread.
Enable https on a Go server by generating a private and public key with openssl, using a self-signed certificate, and optionally redirecting insecure traffic to port 443.
Implement user login on a Go website using Go templates, sessions, and cookies, including login forms, template loading, and post requests.
Learn how to let users search the database and display results using a public item info table. Build a search results page with templates and images while handling login state.
