 <p>
 The Go programming language is an open source project to make programmers more
 productive.
 </p>

 <p>
 Go is expressive, concise, clean, and efficient. Its concurrency
 mechanisms make it easy to write programs that get the most out of multicore
 and networked machines, while its novel type system enables flexible and
 modular program construction. Go compiles quickly to machine code yet has the
 convenience of garbage collection and the power of run-time reflection. It's a
 fast, statically typed, compiled language that feels like a dynamically typed,
 interpreted language.

 	  A Tour of Go
 	{{else}}
 	  <a href="//tour.golang.org/">A Tour of Go</a>
 	{{end}}
 </h3>
 <p>
 An interactive introduction to Go in three sections.
 The first section covers basic syntax and data structures; the second discusses
 methods and interfaces; and the third introduces Go's concurrency primitives.
 Each section concludes with a few exercises so you can practice what you've
 learned. You can {{if not $.GoogleCN}}<a href="//tour.golang.org/">take the tour
 online</a> or{{end}} install it locally with:
 </p>
 <pre>
 $ go get golang.org/x/tour
 </pre>
 <p>
 This will place the <code>tour</code> binary in your workspace's <code>bin</code> directory.
 </p>

 <h2 id="learning">Using and understanding Go</h2>

 <h3 id="effective_go"><a href="effective_go.html">Effective Go</a></h3>
 <p>
 A document that gives tips for writing clear, idiomatic Go code.
 A must read for any new Go programmer. It augments the tour and
 the language specification, both of which should be read first.
 </p>

 <h3 id="editors"><a href="editors.html">Editor plugins and IDEs</a></h3>
 <p>
 A document that summarizes commonly used editor plugins and IDEs with
 Go support.
 </p>

 <h3 id="diagnostics"><a href="/doc/diagnostics.html">Diagnostics</a></h3>
 <p>
 Summarizes tools and methodologies to diagnose problems in Go programs.
 </p>

 <h3 id="dependencies"><a href="/doc/modules/managing-dependencies">Managing dependencies</a></h3>
 <p>
 When your code uses external packages, those packages (distributed as modules) become dependencies.
 </p>

 <h3 id="developing-modules">Developing modules</h3>

 <h4 id="modules-develop-publish"><a href="/doc/modules/developing">Developing and publishing modules</a></h4>
 <p>
 You can collect related packages into modules, then publish the modules for other developers to use. This topic gives an overview of developing and publishing modules.
 </p>

 <h4 id="modules-release-workflow"><a href="/doc/modules/release-workflow">Module release and versioning workflow</a></h4>
 <p>
 When you develop modules for use by other developers, you can follow a workflow that helps ensure a reliable, consistent experience for developers using the module. This topic describes the high-level steps in that workflow.
 </p>

 <h4 id="modules-managing-source"><a href="/doc/modules/managing-source">Managing module source</a></h4>
 <p>
 When you're developing modules to publish for others to use, you can help ensure that your modules are easier for other developers to use by following the repository conventions described in this topic.
 </p>

 <h4 id="modules-major-version"><a href="/doc/modules/major-version">Developing a major version update</a></h4>
 <p>
 A major version update can be very disruptive to your module's users because it includes breaking changes and represents a new module. Learn more in this topic.
 </p>

 <h4 id="modules-publishing"><a href="/doc/modules/publishing">Publishing a module</a></h4>
 <p>
 When you want to make a module available for other developers, you publish it so that it's visible to Go tools. Once you've published the module, developers importing its packages will be able to resolve a dependency on the module by running commands such as go get.
 </p>

 <h4 id="modules-version-numbers"><a href="/doc/modules/version-numbers">Module version numbering</a></h4>
 <p>
 A module's developer uses each part of a module's version number to signal the version’s stability and backward compatibility. For each new release, a module's release version number specifically reflects the nature of the module's changes since the preceding release.
