What Hacker News says
2 sourcesA lot of people are saying to read the stdlib, but the stdlib has a lot of objectively bad code in it. Some of it is necessary due to the nature of a standard library - you have extra concerns about dependencies to ensure people don't have to include the entire stdlib in every binary. Some of it is stuff they hacked together when they were still designing the language, and that initial code still works fine so no need to update it.
I think the source code for pkg.go.dev is actually a treasure trove of good ideas and design patterns, especially if you are trying to make a small to mdedium sized web app (which, lets be real, is almost all web apps anyone will ever make). https://github.com/golang/pkgsite
