Self introduction
Ren He leads the product back-end team in "Tantan", and he is responsible for all database management parts from developing GO to PostrgreSQL in the team work. As a member of the original development team, he not only experienced tremendous growth and challenges during his first personal experience, but also encountered many difficulties.
Why and when did you get involved with Go?
We started using Golang in 2012 to refactor some of our backend services and we really appreciate the expressive, concise, clean and efficient language. When we started building Tantan in 2014, we decided to use Golang to build all our backend services, a big decision we've made in our engineering practice over the past 4 years.
Any words or advice for Gopher?
1.Go is used as a server-side programming language for various backend services.
2.Go should be the main programming language for your next project because it is more productive and performant.
3. Writing Go code is fun
What are the ways and book recommendations for learning Go?
1. The documentation on golang.org should be the first place for all new developers to start learning Golang, especially "Go Go", a documentation that provides hints for writing clear, idiomatic Go code.
2. The Go wiki page (https://github.com/golang/go/wiki) is another great place to find various resources, it includes blogs, articles, videos and books about Golang.
How do you view the development of Go in China, and what is the expected future?
GO has achieved great success in China over the past few years, where it is more popular than any other country according to Google Trends. Golang has been adopted by a growing number of Chinese companies, including startups and big players like Alibaba, Baidu, Tencent, and Weibo. It will become one of the most popular languages in server-side programming.
The 4th Gopher China Conference will be held in Shanghai in April, and this year is also the first time that pre-conference training has been added. This year's conference will have more to look forward to in terms of scale and content!
