Let's talk business

Did you ever hear that microservices fix all the issues? And then had to work with distributed monoliths where one piece going down breaks the entire platform?

Let's face it: distributed systems are complex. It's too easy to replace a legacy system with a messier one, using Kubernetes this time.

The good news is we've been there, and you don't need to reinvent the wheel.

Stay with us if you want to learn how to:

  • build scalable and decoupled services,
  • design advanced event-driven systems,
  • avoid turning your project into a legacy right after release,
  • consider different tradeoffs.

We designed an online training where you learn this by building real-world projects. No boring videos to watch.

Gopher of time

You can't buy time

It's rare to find high-quality learning materials. They're often inconsistent, outdated, or incomplete. (We've been there.)

Go Event-Driven distills practical knowledge and years of experience. We focus on essential topics and filter out the noise to ensure you're productive right away.

Practical Gopher

Hands-On

You can't learn to drive a car from a book or a video. Creating software is no different.

This training is all about practice. You'll get your hands dirty with coding to grasp the topics. If you prefer passively watching videos, you're on the wrong website.

Real-world examples

Have you ever wondered why many tutorials use a coffee machine analogy? It takes work to come up with proper examples.

Abstract or too simple examples leave you unprepared for real-world challenges. In Go Event-Driven, you apply what you learn to a real-world project.

Stay in your environment. Use your favorite tools.

We created a custom platform that guides you through the training. It's a unique experience that helps you learn the fastest way possible. You won't find such a learning platform anywhere else.

Work on real-life projects doesn't happen in the browser. We let you stay with your favorite tools. VS Code, GoLand, Vim, Emacs? It's up to you.

You can solve the exercises at any time that suits you best. You can start the training now, in a week, or a year.

This "Event-Driven Go" course was honestly super useful. The CLI tool they've got for hands-on exercises is a game-changer. The CLI tool functions like an interactive debugger, giving immediate feedback and validation as you work through coding exercises. I'm looking forward to using what I learned directly in my job.

The Discord community is also a big win. It's not every day you get to chat directly with the people who made the course. They're super helpful and quick to answer any questions. Also, they continuously take feedback and improve the course.

So, would I recommend it? Absolutely, especially if you're into Go or want to get the hang of event-driven architecture. It's well worth the time and money.

Great hands-on course that immediately puts the theory into practical example.

Examples and tasks are extremely relevant for anyone trying to write event-driven application, all recognized as "yeah this is a problem we are solving/need to solve".

Small focused programming tasks and one longer bigger project that is built through the whole course is great for having isolated examples of the concepts and also their place in overall architecture which is often missing in courses/tutorials.

Definitely recommending this for all of our developers as the problems and solutions are daily struggle in any distributed system.

And as a bonus contains clever tool that allows you to work on the examples in any IDE you prefer AND does run robust tests that make sure the code works properly.

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 worked in many fields, including infrastructure, complex and global financial domains, healthcare, and security. In the meantime, we've built a few startups and led multiple teams. It gave us a broad perspective on software development across different organizations.

We've been building projects together for over 15 years. In 2016, we fell in love with the 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.

We have been blogging, creating open-source projects, and writing an e-book for the past five years. It helped us to build the trust of the Go community.

The best proof was that we sold 323 copies of Go Event-Driven in pre-sale without even starting work on it. In other words, over 300 people trusted us enough to pay more than $54k total on the promise that we'll deliver something they'll love.

Now, it's your chance to join them and add event-driven architecture to your skillset.

What 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.

The hands on training is perfect for engagement and drilling down the concepts of event driven. I've done video trainings before, and don't get me wrong it's certainly possible to learn with them, but comparing to this approach is certainly a step up in the learning process.

Before I joined Go Event-Driven course from ThreeDotsLabs, I already used their watermill package for event driven applications.

By joining Go Event-Driven course, I realized that I only scratched the surface for watermill package and event driven applications in Go.

I enjoyed and learned a lot from this course.

The Golang Event-Driven training was a highly beneficial experience, especially due to its hands-on approach, which facilitated a deeper understanding and retention of core concepts. Applying the acquired knowledge has brought a new dimension of efficiency and scalability to my daily job tasks.

Viacheslav Ostrovskii

Software developer

That is a great idea to wrap up all infomation about event-driven systems in Go and put it in a traing with a convenient platform. I must admit quality of training parts, thare no boring videos just best practices, real-world examples and joy of coding.

The Three Dots Labs team created a great product to improve yourself in short period of time. Thanks a ton!

Bastiaan Breemer

Low code developer

Good training for understanding event driven design of applications, with the use off Watermill. It's great that you're able to do this training in your own coding environment, sometimes the error messages are a bit cryptic but for the most part it's easy to understand. From the way they first make you do an exercise and then implement that into a project makes you think about where it would fit inside a real implementation.

The training portal could use some more work to make it more user friendly to run on a single screen side by side but overall it's all good.

I really love this course! Unlike books or blogs, you can actually code step by step in this course, which gives you a much more solid understanding. Plus, event-driven programming is going to be the next big thing in the future as software becomes more complex. So, this course is totally worth it for you.
