Understanding basics of TLS by writing small programs in Go

Go monk

A hands-on exploration of TLS encryption through practical Go examples. Starting with basic TCP servers, the guide demonstrates how plaintext communication can be intercepted, then shows how to implement TLS encryption using Go's crypto/tls package with certificates and private keys. The tutorial progresses from raw TCP to TLS-secured connections, and finally to HTTP/HTTPS implementations, illustrating the TLS handshake process and how encryption protects data from network eavesdropping.
