Understanding the go compiler
About
The Go compiler is a great but complex tool. For most Go programmers it’s just that, a tool. It doesn’t matter what happens between my go build and the execution of my binary, because, at the end of the day, the go compiler works like a charm. But if you are a curious person that wants to know more about this process, this is your talk. I’ll go through the compilation of one of the simplest go programs you can write: a hello world. From that source file, with just plain text, into an optimized machine-specific binary code, passing through the set of transformations that happens in between.

Staff Engineer •
Mattermost
I'm an Open Source and software development enthusiast. I love writing code and contribute to Open Source project, and I have the privilege of being one of the starters or contributors in some interesting Open Source projects like Taiga, Penpot, Mattermost or Focalboard. I'm a big fan of learning new things, specially programming languages. I love Rust, Go, Python and Clojure, and love to deep dive into technical details.
Currently I'm working mainly in Go and Typescript in Mattermost, and I keep trying to contribute to open source project whenever I can.
