The Go language has well-defined practices for formatting, documentation, and code structure. You can find these referenced in many places, for example, https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html#formatting and https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments.

Many of these design decisions are encoded in tools such as gofmt and golint, which makes it easy for people to learn and maintain standardized code.
In this chapter, we will look beyond these code standards and common conventions to focus on the aspects of best practice that make it easier to maintain and grow GUI-based applications. We will cover the following topics:
- Separation of concerns
- Test-driving UI development
- Continuous integration...
