How to Format Your Golang Code

Whether you agree with it or not, Go defines a code style at a language level (which I love), and not different styles per project - or having the style as an afterthought! This means there’s very little opinion or conflict when moving between projects so it’s easy. This is very important to Go, as it stresses clarity and consistency as some of the most important factors of code style. So you’ve written some code, and have been told to format it?

Update All Go Packages in Your Project

If you want to update all dependencies and packages within your project then the simplest way is to use the go get command which handles it all for us. Go modules (go mod) will handle most of the versioning of these packages, so deploying and sharing the project will keep the same package versions.
