Golang Patterns

// Good: Clear and direct

    if err != nil {
        return nil, fmt.Errorf("get user %s: %w", id, err)

// Good: Zero value is useful

}

func (c *Counter) Inc() {
    c.mu.Lock()

// Good: bytes.Buffer works with zero value
var buf bytes.Buffer
buf.WriteString("hello")

// Bad: Requires initialization
type BadCounter struct {
    counts map[string]int // nil map will panic
}

// Good: Accepts interface, returns concrete type
func ProcessData(r io.Reader) (*Result, error) {
    data, err := io.ReadAll(r)
    if err != nil {
        return nil, err
