This course is aimed at learners who are proficient with core Golang (variables, data types, flow control, functions, packages) and experience with HTML. Knowledge of HTTP protocol is helpful but not required. "Golang for Beginners: Data Types, Functions, and Packages" highly recommended as a prerequisite.
