SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Go developers struggle to filter the constant stream of ecosystem news, releases, and community content into a manageable set of trustworthy sources. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Curated Resource Directory: Lists official Go resources (go.dev, pkg.go.dev, tour, playground), newsletters (Golang Weekly, Awesome Go Newsletter), and community channels (r/golang, Go Slack, Go Forum, golang-nuts). - People to Follow: Catalogs core Go team members, library authors, conference speakers, and performance experts with GitHub, X, LinkedIn, and Bluesky handles. - Use Case: A developer asks how to stay current with Go without information overload, and receives a concrete plan: subscribe to 1-2 newsletters, follow 10-20 key people, check go.dev/blog weekly, and attend GopherCon yearly. ## Quick Start Ask the agent which Go newsletters, communities, and developers to follow to stay updated with the Go ecosystem.
