Real World DevOps: Build an API in Go

Get the DevOps Roadmap for 2022 here: devopsfordevelopers.io/roadmap
For every new project, there is a ton of setup work to be done before writing your business code. In this video, you'll learn how to setup a new project with a single command. While this project uses Go, the same technique applies to any language.
Once the setup is complete, you'll learn how to start building your CI/CD pipeline with github actions and see it run with our first pull request.

Out of the 2 careers, who would you say is more of a "jack of all trades"; a devops or cloud engineer?
I've learnt recently that people with specialised skills earn more; hence why there is a cap for a devops engineers salary at the senior level, but if that engineer where to specialise in let's say networking for example; their salary would therefore increase?
Hopefully this question is comprehensible. Let me know if not, as I can always rephrase it.
Thanks again,
ZimCanIT.

There is a ton of overlap between the roles and actual descriptions vary from employer to employer but I think a devops engineer is more jack of all trades.
Specializing helps, don’t forget industry specialization too: like devops for early stage startups or companies in the education industry, etc…
The technical expertise plus industry knowledge is a powerful weapon

If I want to write code as a DevOps, will I still be able to do that in the role? Meaning other than IAC, such as automation tests or scripts that involves a programming language? Can I achieve everything as a code?

It depends a lot on where you work. In some companies, that falls within the scope of DevOps. In others, it is out of scope. It's definitely possible but something you should ask about during your interview.
