Build Your First AI Agent in Go (Complete Tutorial)
In this tutorial, I'll show you how to build an AI agent in Go using my Fleet framework. We'll create an intelligent system that can decide whether to answer questions directly or fetch data from external APIs. I'll walk you through the node-based architecture, shared store pattern, and how to connect everything together into a working AI agent.
