  1. SaturdayMP Show 89: PostCast (Part 10 – Integration Tests and Keyring Saving)

    Omar is back! We really got into the zone and recorded our longest PostCast video yet. Might be the longest SaturdayMP Show video yet. We don't edit out mistakes, so watch along as we learn in real time:

    - how to write integration tests in Go (build tags vs. -short flag)
    - how to create test setup/teardown in Go
    - that the go-keyring library has mocking built in so we can simplify our tests
    - how to connect our keyring logic to the Fyne GUI

    Do you like or dislike the long live coding sessions? Should we try coding live instead of mostly live? Let us know in a constructive and polite manor.

  2. In episode 84 of the SaturdayMP show, Omar and myself create a very basic main screen using Fyne to input the text to post and a button to create the LinkedIn post. That said, the GUI doesn't do anything yet, except look nice-ish. Lots of reading the Fyne documentation and experimenting with Fyne.

  3. SaturdayMP Show 79: Creating PostCast (Part 1 – Setting up Go Environment)

    Happy New Year everyone! In this video I start on the PostCast* app, and this video turned out to be an hour of getting Go and Fyne set up. I've never used Go before, so it was a learning curve but not too bad.

    Do you have any suggestions for improving my setup? If so, let me know. I'm sure I got something wrong and/or something could be improved.
