Why watch

This Quick Bit video addresses a common misconception among Go newcomers coming from object-oriented languages: struct embedding does not provide inheritance like classes do. The video explains why this approach fails and demonstrates how to solve shared behavior problems using idiomatic Go patterns like composition. Targeted at developers transitioning from languages like Java, Python, or C++.
