Like any programming languages, Go is better suited for some tasks over others. And there are some applications where Go is the best option out there.
The language itself has a number of advantages over others:
- Because Go is compiled, you can avoid a number of errors that would produce runtime bugs
- The language itself is easier to read than C, C++, or Java because it doesn’t use as many parentheses and doesn’t use any semicolons.
- Go has built-in support for concurrency through goroutines and channels. While goroutines are not as powerful as OS thread, they are very lightweight and performant.
