tour.golang.org is a good start to get familiar with the language's features. After that it is just worth picking a mini-project and getting cracking. The website https://gobyexample.com/ is a great place to see some simple, real-world examples once you start to actually try and do something.

There will be a lot that is familiar to a C#/Java dev, but also a lot of the stuff you might have got familiar with in C# is missing (famously generics are not there, but also other things like Linq etc has no native equivalent in go, although there are libraries that offer similar functionality).

Good luck! :-)

Picking a mini-project (without completely re-inventing the wheel) was the harder part for me - I did start out with tour.golang.org, and just reading their docs too.

I'll still checkout https://gobyexample.com/ - thanks for the link!
