Gin 1 Fundamentals
Gin is a fast, lightweight framework that simplifies the creation of web applications and services. This course will teach you how to use Gin to create clean and well-structured web-based programs.
What you'll learn
The Go language has proven itself to be an excellent choice for web-based applications. However, on its own, Go can be a little tedious when routing requests and other common tasks. In this course, Gin 1 Fundamentals, you’ll learn to simplify the creation of web applications and services using Gin. First, you’ll explore Gin’s routing API to quickly get your requests where they need to go. Next, you’ll discover how to implement clear request handlers. Finally, you’ll learn how to use middleware to add features such as response compression, route-based authentication, and more. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Gin needed to create your own web-based applications and services.
