  • 9 Golang Name Conventions Gophers should follow!
    1 project | /r/golang | 4 Jul 2023
    Actually in the early days of Go, devs were stuck to camalCase/PascalCase on variable naming. But VScode Go plugin managed by Microsoft at that time , and they suggested ID over id/ID, XML over xml/ Xml. Because VScode is free, it attached many users and using uppercase for abbreviations/ initialisms became a standard. Andhttps://github.com/golang/lint/issues/124 finalized it. But , still I think it is a wrong decision.

    As for linting, go vet and [staticcheck](staticcheck.io) are the recommended tools, according to the now deprecated golint repository.

    about Initialisms; Personally I still prefer simple initial conventions (lowerCamelCase, UpperCamelCase, UPPERCASE) Go followed before VSCODE/Microsoft suggested ID or Id (ex. https://github.com/golang/lint/issues/124). Following one pattern everywhere is the best. In Go, a name is exported if it begins with a capital letter. ex URL; if any unexported var/const start with "URL", what do you do?

  • Run README.md in your terminal
    5 projects | dev.to | 10 Aug 2022
    Primarily born out of the annoyance of never-ending README copy & paste, our teammate Adam Babik decided to utilize a Markdown Abstract Syntax Tree parser to generate a naive digest of README snippets and make them easily runnable. This is a prototype (take the happy path!), but we are pleased with the initial results. Illustrated here using Husky - a popular solution to manage git hooks:
  • Hugo.io - Multiline cells in a table
    2 projects | dev.to | 10 Jun 2022
    Building table in markdown is super easy and well-documented. However, having a bit of formatting within it, like carriage return within a cell as below is not possible by default. Hugo uses Goldmark (a CommonMark implementation in Go) to process the markdown. Apparently it's extremely fast, with this implementation we choose to block any HTML processing d'HTML by default.
  • Is Astro ready for your blog?
    20 projects | dev.to | 24 Apr 2022
    Comparison: By default, Eleventy uses Markdown-it; like Astro, Gatsby and Next.js use Remark; and Hugo uses goldmark. As for Astro’s ability to mix components and Markdown on a page, probably the closest analogy to this is the use of MDX files in Gatsby and Next.js; Eleventy and Hugo can’t do this (however, see also “Components,” below, for some words on how Eleventy and Hugo use shortcodes which can provide some degree of code-in-Markdown functionality). Note that migrating an existing site to Astro from any of these other platforms probably will involve far more editing to your existing Markdown content than if you were migrating between two of the non-Astro platforms in this mix.

  • MathJax and Hugo
    3 projects | dev.to | 16 Sep 2021
    The solution to the problem of having to escape many characters in LaTeX markup is solved in a simlar manner, however a combination of Hugo now using the Goldmark renderer and the MathJax API changing quite significantly at version 3.0, it largely needs re-writing. Firstly the script to add the class to the code blocks now looks like this:
