A Tour of Go for the C# Developer
summary
A small Go console app fetches nine IDs from a localhost .NET service (each request simulates a 1s server delay) and demonstrates that sequential requests take ~9s while launching one goroutine per request with goroutines and channels and a buffered channel of size 10 reduces total time to ~1s. Code uses net/http, json.Decoder, fmt, time, make for channels, pointers and a struct with a Stringer-style method, and shows blank identifier and implicit interface implementation. Source and runnable examples are on GitHub.
