## What it is
A series of work-along guides explaining how Go modules work, covering topics like submodules, vendoring, semantic import versioning, and dependency analysis. It complements the official Go documentation and Go modules wiki.

## Use cases
- learn how go modules work
- migrate a project from dep to go modules
- understand semantic import versioning
- manage vendored dependencies with go modules
- analyze module dependency graphs
- install and run tools as dependencies
- handle multiple major versions of a module

## When to choose
- you are learning Go modules through hands-on examples
- you need practical guides for common module workflows
- you want to complement official Go docs with worked examples

## When to avoid
- you need official or fully up-to-date module documentation
- you want a tool rather than educational material
- you need a finished, structured curriculum - the guides are work-in-progress

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: documentation, developer-tools
- domain: tutorials, developer-tools, version-control
- platform: go, cli, cross-platform
- tags: go-modules, tutorials, work-along-guides, dependency-management
