Hi Gophers,

Ashamed to put my immature question in middle of so many technical posts, but apologies and I'm desperate.

A bit info about me before my ask, I am almost 16 yrs into IT and was never consistent on the techstack. Almost for first 8 yrs into sap admin and now into devops side for last 3-4 yrs.

I wanted to move to programming side and because k8s operators etc.. have tighter integrations with go, i choose Go.

I took a Go web development course from Udemy and started around 2 months ago. I haven't finished yet, but I was going slow and trying to understand/map with Go documentation. But it seems I am not going anywhere.

For example, the course was teaching http packages etc.. So i studied more about http packages from go standard library, understood (atleast basics) what actually headers meant for, what is middleware for etc...

Here comes my problem. In the project which I am into is using Go echo framework and some uber fx dependency etc.. My assumption is that because i understand http better now, I can write code based on echo library. I was wrong. Leave about writing, i couldn't even understand anything and moreover I don't see any connection to http package.

This is just a sample. In the project which I am into have lot of things like k8s controller runtime, nats libraries, Prometheus and openshift libraries, and many more. And here are my questions.

1) How do you guys consume any library so fast without any issues. 2) Am i learning it wrong or missing something. 3) Is it called maturity and thats the reason not every IT can become developer.
