What are the advanced features and future of Go?

Detailed Explanation
Advanced Go Features: • Generics (Go 1.18+) • Fuzzing (Go 1.18+) • Workspaces (Go 1.18+) • Embedded files (Go 1.16+) • Module retraction • Build constraints improvements Fuzzing example: func FuzzReverse(f *testing.F) { testcases := []string{"Hello", "world", ""} for _, tc := range testcases { f.Add(tc) } f.Fuzz(func(t *testing.T, orig string) { rev := Reverse(orig) doubleRev := Reverse(rev) if orig != doubleRev { t.Errorf("Before: %q, after: %q", orig, doubleRev) } }) } Embedded files: //go:embed static/* var staticFiles embed.FS Future directions: • Performance improvements • Better error handling proposals • Enhanced type system • Improved tooling • WebAssembly support • Better IDE integration Community and ecosystem: • Rich standard library • Active open-source community • Strong corporate backing • Growing adoption in cloud-native • Excellent tooling ecosystem
