Go Proposals
A repository for Go project design documents and the formal process for proposing changes to the Go language, libraries, and tools.
What is Go Proposals?
golang/proposal is the official repository for the Go programming language's proposal process and design documents. It defines the formal workflow for suggesting and reviewing changes to Go's language, libraries, and tools, ensuring changes are properly evaluated and documented before implementation. It hosts design documents that detail accepted proposals and provides transparency into Go's development decisions.
Go contributors, language designers, and developers who want to propose changes to Go or understand how the language evolves. It's essential for anyone submitting significant modifications to Go's standard library, tooling, or syntax.
It provides a standardized, transparent process for managing Go's evolution, preventing breaking changes and ensuring community input. Developers choose it because it's the canonical source for Go's design decisions and proposal guidelines, backed by the core Go team.
