Let’s get intimate with Go and have fun with the Abstract Syntax Tree (AST, for short) package. Wield the power of code interpretation using the robust tools provided to us by the core package, and solve real world problems!

Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) transformation is not a pie-in-the-sky technique, and familiarizing yourself with Go’s AST will add a very powerful tool to your figurative developer tool-belt. In this session I will talk about what are AST transformations and what they can do for you. We’ll review AST in theory, the important parts of the core ast package and see how we can use it to solve real world problems.
