  • A brief look at Go's new generics
    1 project | dev.to | 28 Dec 2021
    Among the many early review articles of pre-1.0 Go, a common criticism was the lack of generics, or parameterized types. Having used Go for my personal projects since late 2009 and professionally since 2013, I kind of understood the criticism because it was the kind of feature that you would naturally expect in a new language as other modern languages of the time would often feature generics in some shape or form. C++ went to the extreme with it, as its template system goes beyond just type parameterization and was even found to be Turing-complete. Practically though, in the several years of actively using Go pretty much every work day, writing many tens of thousands of line of code, I've only ever come across one situation where I thought that parameterized types would have been really handy and would have made it so much easier to write less repetitive code.
