Then, you should visit:

- https://golang.org/doc/code.html to learn how to organize your Go workspace
- https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html be more effective at writing Go
- https://golang.org/ref/spec learn more about the language itself
- https://golang.org/doc/#articles a lot more reading material
