This is a personal learning repository, but feel free to:
- Suggest improvements
- Share learning resources
- Provide code reviews
- Report issues
- Each project should have its own
go.modfile - Include comprehensive README files for each project
- Write tests for all code
- Document learnings and challenges
- Use conventional Go project structure
