If you worked with Go quite a bit 3-4 years ago, but have been out of scene since then... what is the best resource(s) for getting back up to speed with its current state?

I presume that the language spec itself hasn't change DRAMATICALLY over the past few years. But so much is unfamiliar in the project structure / build process area (e.g. "vendor directories", modules, dependency managament, etc).

All the tours and tutorials focus on the language syntax and standard library. Looking for a refresher or intro to the "how do you actually get work done in the best manner?" plumbing aspects.

I'd say: assume nothing has changed. Take a look at the active projects in your area of interest. A few ones:

https://echo.labstack.com

https://github.com/go-kit/kit

Web glue frequently recommended around here:

https://github.com/go-chi/chi

Github pages like https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go have become a good starting point for finding interesting projects.
