Learn Event-Driven Go
Never again distributed monoliths.
It's time to go beyond REST.
Let's talk business
Did you ever hear that you should use microservices to avoid coupling? And then had to work with services that need to be deployed together or one going down breaks the entire platform?
Let's face it: distributed systems are hard. It's easy to create a messy distributed monolith in place of that legacy system you're trying to replace.
The good news is we've been there, and you don't need to re-invent the wheel.
Stay with us for a while if you want to learn how to:
- build scalable and decoupled services,
- design advanced event-driven systems,
- avoid turning your project into a legacy just after release,
- model events with different tradeoffs.
We designed an online training that does it by building real-world projects. With no boring videos to watch.
Time is the only thing you can't buy
How much would you remember after watching a 100-hour-long video course? We select just the theory you need to be productive.
Hands-On
If you prefer to passively watch video lectures for hours, you are on the wrong website. This training is 100% hands-on. You will get your hands dirty with coding.
Real-world examples
The best way to become productive in a technology is by solving real problems with it. Read and write applications you would build in your day job.
Stay in your environment. Use your favorite tools.
In this training, you use your favorite code editor and terminal.
Our CLI does all heavy lifting. You can focus on learning.
After finishing the training, you can use the same tools to build your next projects.

You may know us from the Three Dots Labs blog, the Watermill library, or our e‑book: Go With The Domain: Building Modern Business Software in Go.
Last year, we released Go in One Evening, our first hands-on online training.
We've been building projects together for over 14 years. In 2016, we fell in love with simplicity and pragmatism of Go. In our daily work we're helping businesses win using Go software.
When we meet in our free time, we like to cook and eat some steaks and burgers.

The current state of the training
🎉 We hit the pre-sale target! We aim to release all the content before the end of June.
We plan to run the next sale in the autumn.
Is it for you?
We want to build the best trainings possible for a specific group of developers.
This training is a perfect match if:
You already know Go basics.
You prefer to learn by doing.
You look for knowledge you can apply in your projects.
You want to learn real-life scenarios.
You like to work in your local environment.
You're ok paying to save your time.
You won't like it if:
You are a junior developer. It's designed for experienced developers.
You're looking for a video course you can passively watch. You won't be able to progress without finishing the hands-on exercises.
You don't know Go.
See Go in One Evening, our training on the basics.
You don't want to pay to learn.

Tobias Andersson
Site Reliability Engineer, ComeOn GroupWhat is often missing when learning new things is interactivity along with easy explanations for complex technical terms.
This course has all the elements that made it an incredible course, it is interesting, challenging but above all incredibly educational.
Luís Pinto
Backend EngineerThe content was really well put together, everything builds upon what we are learning along the way and the approach of the small projects where all the knowledge is tied up together works really well!
This was a really nice course - I'd say that's a 10/10 in terms of value for money. I'm eager to start the next course from Three Dots Labs as soon as it's available!
Max Wolffe
Sr. Software Engineer, DatabricksGo In One Evening is an incredible way to quickly get a working knowledge of Go!
The training is interactive and follows some excellent teaching patterns (spaced repetition, interleaving, etc). Highly recommend.
