Ring by Example

Content and build toolchain for Go by Example, a site that teaches Go via annotated example programs.

Overview

The Go by Example site is built by extracting code and comments from source files in examples and rendering them using templates into a static public directory. The programs implementing this build process are in tools, along with dependencies specified in the go.modfile.

The built public directory can be served by any static content system. The production site uses S3 and CloudFront, for example.

Building

To build the site you'll need Go installed. Run:

./tools/build.sh

To build continuously in a loop:

./tools/build-loop.sh

To see the site locally:

go run ./tools/serve.go

and open http://127.0.0.1:8000/ in your browser.
