Comidoc Review

Our Verdict

This Golang course offers an advanced look into microservices API development using Hexagonal Architecture, delivering a thorough understanding of RESTful principles, authentication and authorization protocols. However, it moves at a rapid clip which might be challenging for beginners to follow, and the latter part of the course is predominantly exposition-based with pre-written code. While the content provides valuable insights, independent learners may derive the most benefit from this program.

What We Liked

In-depth exploration of REST based microservices API development in Golang
Comprehensive coverage of Hexagonal Architecture design and its implementation
Hands-on experience with SOLID design principles, dependency injection, logging, and error handling
Exploration of authentication and authorization using JWT access & refresh tokens

Potential Drawbacks

Fast-paced delivery may prove challenging for beginners
Code is often pre-written in later sections limiting hands-on experience
Some students may require additional guidance on setting up MySQL and configuring the environment
Coding nuances such as pointer returns are not adequately explained
