goroutines
Goroutines are lightweight, concurrent tasks managed by the Go programming language. Think of them as independent workflows within a program that run simultaneously, allowing multiple activities to proceed without waiting for each other. They are efficient and use minimal resources, enabling applications to perform many operations at once—like handling multiple web users or processing data streams—without significant overhead. Goroutines make programs faster and more responsive by leveraging concurrency, all while being easy to create and manage within the Go language environment.
