Golang Developer

Hey guys, I have been learning Golang and I am now looking for some hands on experience. If anyone has a project or has a repo that I could help with that would be sweet!

Port https://github.com/commonmark/cmark from C to Go.

Go has decent markdown parsers (I maintain one at https://github.com/gomarkdown/markdown/) but there is no parser that does CommonMark.

That would be a valuable addition to Go ecosystem and the project is well scoped (and there is existing test suite so you'll know if the code works or not).

Just curious why not call cmark from go with cgo? Would save a lot of effort porting.
Cgo has overhead and is slower
Hi devgator, I coded a blockchain app in Golang.

https://github.com/Grrrben/gocoin

Used it as a study in Golang myself and still love coding it. It's an open project, any enhancement would be appriciated!

I work on zbuild, which is a cross-language build tool designed to make vending and versioning artifacts sane in large, multi-team environments. If you're interested, I can help you get started with a simple task or two: https://github.com/dimes/zbuild
The Gorgonia Family (used for deep learning): https://github.com/gorgonia/

I'm currently looking for contributors to help develop bindings for cudart (what is currently available is cuda driver API, cublas and cudnn, which is partially done due to the lack of cudart)
