Advanced Golang: Channels, Context and Interfaces Explained
Today, I'll provide a simple breakdown of channels, context and interfaces in Golang. I'll show examples of why they are useful and how to properly use them in the real world.
0:00 Intro
0:17 Channels
8:35 Context
13:55 Interfaces
21:53 Conclusion
Channels are a safe way of transferring data between goroutines without using a mutex. You can send data to a channel in one goroutine, then consume data from the same channel in another goroutine. By default, a channel does not have space to store data, so you must simultaneously send and receive data from the channel to avoid a deadlock. A buffered channel allows you to allocate space to temporarily store data in the channel.
Context is an object that can be safely passed to multiple goroutines to provide a way to implement a timeout or cancellation to a function. 3rd party libraries that make HTTP requests or database requests typically have support for providing your own context so you cancel those operations.
Interfaces are a great way to enforce a blueprint for what your app can do, similar to object oriented programming. For example, there are many different types of bank accounts, but you can use a single interface to interact with all of them: GetBalance(), Deposit() and Withdraw(). This makes your high-level code easier to work with because the implementation is abstracted away.

this guy just chilling on his bed while explaining complex staff, loving it haha
Ryan you probably are already aware of it, but you have such a talent in explaining stuff. Thanks for your work. Keep exploring Golang please

The best way of working!
This video is a gem, It would have been awesome if you could have a series for advanced golang. I am sure other viewers would want that too !
Your voice is ASMR but the best part is you know what you're talking about and how to explain it.
I've read several books on Go but your explanations have been clearer and more concise to me. I especially like your description of (unbuffered) channels as being portals that don't store anything and why they could result in a deadlock. I never really understood that from my readings until you explained it.
Ryan- you have a natural ability for simply explaining complex topics. Good job!
your casual style makes information so much more accessible. i subbed!
Amazing video series for go, I love hearing advanced topics in a new language, that I can carry over from previous ones I know.🎉❤
I love your isolation method of explaining code
Dude, your explanation is crystal clear, very specifics and more importantly no blabbering. You should put more tutorials or create a course in udemy man...
Damn, I like how this guy explains things. He oozes experience just from how he talks, and doesn't look like he's reading from an off screen document. Like he was working on some go code and thought it would be nice to share it in a video. He also doesn't just regurgitate what is in the docs like others.
Hey Ryan this is great quality content! Please do more Go videos as there’s not much on KZread. Keep up with the good work!
We need more of golang, your content is superb and easy to understand, very practical examples.
Man, excellent video. Nice to see someone put together solid examples and walk through them well.
Your explanations and demos here are the best! Really helped me get the concept. Thank you so much for making this video!
Love how you explain the concepts. Keeping them simply and clear. Thanks a lot for the great work
I have gone through the basics of Golang. I had trouble understanding interfaces and channels. You have explained it very well. Thank you a lot!!! The way you compared unbuffered channel to a portal was epic.. I wish everyone explains concept like you.
I hadn't touched Go in a couple years, and this video was a perfect refresher to jog my memory on the operation of channels. Nice job!
You are a great teacher. No one out there explained Go in such simple yet elegant way. Thank you!
Thank you Ryan, I love the way of your teaching, its pace is very smooth and gentle, not only you deliver the explanation clearly, but also make it easier for us to digest.
Great tutorial Ryan. Finally I can actually understand contexts in Go.
couldn't understand it better .. you are champ.. thanks Ryan :)
Your voice is almost ASMR level! Also, great explanations.
I should must give this content a thumbs up, channel, context, interface you give us the most clear explanation in the whole universe.
Lovely explanations, I'd love to see more of you, very well spoken and presented!
Hey Ryan, you have a talent. Thank you for your videos
Brilliant work, Ryan. Deeply impressed
Man... what explanation. Sincerely the best one.
My guy really recorded a whole KZread video from bed, that's gotta take a lot of moxie. Every other video on this channel I've watched has been super clean and professional though, so I'll allow it... This time 🤣
Just wanted to say thanks for making this, it's a great explanation - very helpful
Incredibly good explanation! :D Thank you very much! 😊
You're doing a great job! Love your channel
You explained these very well. Thanks.
Great tutorial - very clear now to me! Thanks!!!
This was the best video that I watched that makes me really understand Interfaces. Thank you so much!
Perfect Explanation!!! Thank you so much !!!
I really like the way you explained channels, nicely done!
Nice video Ryan!!! Thanks from Argentina!
Well done. I've seen the context and interface concepts explained before but this video made the ideas click.
you should become a golang trainer or teacher, this is the best explanation video so far
Excellent explanation. Thanks!
Your tutorial is very easy for me to understand, even though I barely understand English, I understand it well when you explain it with examples. I wish you to do more things like this. Thank you very much❤
Great video. Complex topics, simplified, and practical use cases. Thanks for this one. Now off to find help on some projects.
Ryan , the way you explain is cool! Thank you
The explanation and the style of the video is really awesome! Subscribed.
BEST VIDEO !! Deserves so many more likes omgg
Man, you have a voice of morgan freeman and a potential to be a great teacher like Feynman.
Ryan, this is an amazing tutorial. Thanks!
Damn, I watched just one your video and I love the way you explain things. You have radio voice too. Keep doing it!
this dude's the golang goat! best tutorials from a bed, confirmed.
very clear and precise explaination!
Thank you so much for your videos! Your explanations are so great! :)

This was helpful, thanks Ryan
God bless you, brother. If possible continue this type of content.
What an amazing teaching. :)
i really was waiting for something like this specially from you thank you very much keep it up !
Very informative, Please keep doing more about golang topics, your explanation is quality.
Ryan is the Laurence Fishburne (of "The Matrix" fame) of Coding. So smooth, assured and comfortable with the subject matter! Completely agree that training orgs like ACouldGuru, OReily etc could utilise his unique skillset and approach!
Awesome explanations.
Thank you very much for this tutorial
laid back and perfect, just subscribed
Great job, love it!
Why KZread algorithm Doesn't support channels like Ryan instead of Music or fake pranks. I was very impressed with the way you convey knowledge. If you do courses for sale, I will be the first to buy them
You're meant to teach man, great job! Thank you
simple and sweet, thanks :)
You should do a lot more of coding from your bed setup. It is very relaxing to learn from you! I definitely learned a lot
This was a really good tutorial hope you do more
honestly best tutorial in golang. make more stuff plz
Wow! what an explanation. Please make more videos on Golang
Nice. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Great explanation ,,,thanks
the best explanation i have ever seen (i saw maybe 20 videos kkk). You earn more one follow. Excelent Job !!!!
Subscribed, this is amazing
Very very helpful!
Thanks, Morgan!
