Why I Am Writing This: A PHP Developer Crossing Into Go
I am a PHP developer.
I have shipped Laravel and Symfony services in production, debugged messy Eloquent queries at 2am, traced N+1 problems through real traffic, and lived inside enough service containers to know exactly how a framework feels when it grows up with your career.
I always intended to learn Go.
For years, "I'll seriously learn Go someday" sat on my list next to Rust, Elixir, and a dozen side projects. Someday kept getting pushed out by client work and PHP refactors that paid the rent.
