The internet is a place full of interesting information and insights just waiting to be gleaned. Much like golden nuggets, these fragmented pieces of data can be collected, filtered, combined, and refined to produce extremely valuable products. Armed with the right knowledge, skills, and a little creativity, you can build a web scraper that can power multi-billion-dollar companies. To support this, you need to use the best tools for the job, starting with a programming language built for speed, simplicity, and safety.
The Go programming language combines the best ideas from its predecessors and cutting-edge ideology, leaving out the unnecessary fluff, to produce a razor-sharp set of tools and clean architecture. With the Go standard library and projects from open source contributors, you have everything you need to build a web scraper of any size.
