<p><a href="https://play-with-go.dev/"><code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code></a>
is a series of
hands-on, interactive, browser-based guides that introduce the tools required to work with
<a href="https://golang.org/">the Go programming language</a>. It is the natural next step
after <a href="https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1">“A Tour of Go”</a> which introduces the
language itself. <code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code> covers the various
subcommands of the <code class="highlighter-rouge">go</code> command, <a
href="https://staticcheck.io/"><code class="highlighter-rouge">staticcheck</code></a>
and many other tools that will make writing Go programs that much
easier and fun!</p>

</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 text-justify">
<p><code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code>
is an experiment designed to test the hypothesis that
interactive guides are a more engaging medium for
learning when it comes to developer tools. The <code
class="highlighter-rouge">go</code> command and modules
lend themselves very well to this type of guide therefore.
We need your feedback and suggestions to help steer
<code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code> in the right direction!</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 text-justify">
<p><code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code>
is very much by the community, for the community. The
goal is to build a platform of high quality, reviewed and
curated content, with a diverse, inclusive and
sustainable model for having people contribute and
maintain that content. We want to make it easy for
people to contribute and review content, enabled by
tooling and continuous integration checks.</p>

<div class="col-lg-6 text-justify">
<p><code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code> was created
by <a href="https://twitter.com/_myitcv">Paul Jolly</a> and <a
href="https://twitter.com/marcosnils">Marcos
Nils</a>. Guides are built using the popular
<a href="https://github.com/play-with-docker/play-with-docker"><code
class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-docker</code></a> platform (created by <a
href="https://twitter.com/marcosnils">Marcos
Nils</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/xetorthio">Jonathan Leibiusky</a>). Guides
are
served via
https://play-with-go.dev/ and run in a user’s browser, presenting the guide content on
the left,
and an interactive
terminal on the right. This terminal is connected to a remote session hosted in <a
href="https://cloud.google.com/">Google’s
Cloud</a>.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 text-justify">
<p>Potential future enhancements to <code class="highlighter-rouge">play-with-go.dev</code> include:</p>
<ul>
<li>integrating <a href="https://code.visualstudio.com/">Visual Studio Code</a> in the remote session, to enable editing files</li>
<li>supporting different language translations of a guide (that all share the same script)</li>
<li>supporting multiple scenarios (multiple platforms, different tool versions) of the same guide</li>

are looking to broaden that sponsorship base to meet
ongoing hosting costs, but also to start a programme of
rewarding contributors and reviewers. If you or your
