> do we have some kind of coding conventions document?
https://github.com/apache/incubator-trafficcontrol/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
We don't have a specific Go language standard, beyond the community
guidelines. Follow https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html, always run `gofmt`
(consider configuring your editor to run it on save). Running `go vet` and
https://github.com/alecthomas/gometalinter can also help find issues
(gometalinter is extreme, you definitely don't have to fix everything it finds).
We probably don't need a big standards document, `gofmt` and Effective Go
cover 95% it. Though we should add some of the less obvious things, like always
using absolute import paths, to `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
