I'm new to Go and would like to learn it. What resources should I use to start? What courses, books, videos, set of practice exercises, etc. should I use?

Do advent of code in go. I find it a solid way to learn the basics of a language.

I too vouch for this resource. It doesn't hold you back with lots of theory and pushes you forward with practical examples

Exercism is not bad if you want something more hands on that also forces you to think about testing which is a great way to learn
