Go Cheatsheet

Package Visibility

1. Exported identifier (akin to public access modifier) begins with capital letter, eg: Foobar().

2. Internal identifier (akin to private access modifier) begins with small letter, eg: foobar().

Identifer means variable name, function name, constant, statement labels, package name, or types.

Naming Convention:

MixedCaps or mixedCaps rather than underscores to write multiword names.

Godoc

Formatting rules by official Go doc:

• Subsequent lines of text are considered part of the same paragraph; you must leave a blank line to separate paragraphs.
• Pre-formatted text must be indented relative to the surrounding comment text (see gob’s doc.go for an example).
• URLs will be converted to HTML links; no special markup is necessary.
