Great work. I am learning golang right now. The art/pics look amazing and the samples and the explanations are on point. Thank you for your work! I'm sure it will go a long way I'll made sure I tweet about it.

Thank you for your support, I really appreciate, I hope many newcomers will find it interesting.

Thank you ChrisMarshallNY, for your kind message. I hope you will start using Go in the future!

I sent a link to a friend, who is very much a Go programmer (I am a Swift programmer).

Thanks! I hope that he will find it interesting

I love it. Hats off to you for your hard work on this. Who builds your illustrations/graphics ? Looks cool.

My spouse :) Thank you for your feedback !

At this point any Go-related work must come with illustrations done by the spouse.

Thank you for building this! I appreciate chapter 40 being included, a quick summary of go/programming recommendations. Also the illustration on the landing page caught my eye, good choice.

Many thanks! When I began writing Go code I found a lot of "Go idioms" on blog posts, it was hard to remember all of them. By the way, "Effective Go" (https://golang.org/doc/effective_go) is also a great summary of good practices.

Excellent job! Maybe you are already thinking about it, but... You can add a Search Bar and Go version & language selection for the documentation. (i.e. see (bottom left): https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/ ) Also I just published this on /r/golang if you do not mind. :)

Thank you for those suggestions. Adding a search bar is already in my todo list. I will probably use Algolia.

Thank you for posting this on reddit ! I tried to do it but I made a mistake in the title, so I deleted the post and posted again (I never posted on reddit before). Now it seems that my second post is not really visible.

Thank you for your support Dentrax !

That is the warning I'm getting on this link at work. Of course I don't think you are trying to malware people, but might want to look into that on why people might not be able to access your site.
