gopl.io VS Polyglot for Maven

Go never changed as much as Java does in each major release, so old books are still relevant. https://www.gopl.io/ is fine if you read about generics and some new standard library modules somewhere else later.

The Go Programming Language book.

The GOPL book is good one to start with, if you prefer reading books. https://www.gopl.io/

Not that they are leet code style, but some exercises from "The Go Programming Language" are really worth having a look at, also most solutions are available at https://github.com/adonovan/gopl.io

What part(s) are you struggling with and how are you learning? The Go Programming Language is slightly outdated but is an excellent intro. You can read the first chapter free. Also the resources on https://go.dev/learn/ are great. If I were you, I would come up with an idea you're excited about and build it.

For a deeper dive, I’d recommend The Go Programming Language - a fantastic resource covering a broader landscape of the language than just concurrency.

"Low-level programming" is chapter 13, both in the version I have and on https://www.gopl.io/ -- the rest is all somewhat crucial stuff, except for maybe reflection.

Is this the "The Go Programming Language" you mentioned?

And you don't even need to use XML with Polyglot Maven

If you prefer the shorter alternative, you might want to use the Polyglot XML extension https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven/tree/master/polyglot-xml

Here you go: https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven

Fun fact, POM files can be in formats other than XML (although I have no idea if IJ would tolerate such shenanigans): https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven/blob/polyglot-0.4.8/polyglot-yaml/src/test/resources/snakeyaml/pom.yaml

There is a certain argument to be made for user ergonomy. Many developers are drawn to Gradle and friends, or to work with polyglot Maven, because they support a more concise syntax. This is not necessarily a contradiction with Maven's Goals!

I wished they‘d finally embrace polyglot maven https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven. pom.yaml rule the world.

It seems merely adding a file to the .mvn directory will do as you wish: https://github.com/takari/polyglot-maven#usage

I have avoided that road because it's one more thing that is a snowflake in the very area where I don't want to blazing trails. But I have personally tried their approach before and can confirm it does work as advertised. I can't recall if IJ lost its mind over pulling a stunt like that, but arguably if it did, then filing a YouTrack is an appropriate next step
