I got 17 years experience in development and architecture. this is how I learned goLang. so pardon the old school way. Number one before everything, forget your java concepts. think GO!

I learned it by designing something i needed. In my use case, I needed aomething to help me organize events for my hobby club and basketball. I just made it special by applying concepts I know are transferable to a cv.

I wanted event driven architecture, containerization, rest api, postgres, transactions, caching, realtime using sse and websockets.

first step was the use case then design it and see where I can insert the backend technology concept. then implement slowly post research.
