GDN will be utilizing the Meetup app to help developers find local user groups and events.
“A sense of community flourishes when we come together in person. As handles become names and avatars become faces, the smiles are real and true friendship can grow.

In our rapidly growing Go community this critical role is played by the Go user groups,” the Go team wrote in a post.
