Some of you may not know this, but this is my personal dream project. Soon
after joining Google I thought "beam is hard to learn." I had learned Go
through the excellent "A tour of Go <https://go.dev/tour/welcome/1>", and I
wished there was something like that for Beam. A series of clear
explanations, with runnable code, and an invitation to play around and
extend the examples. I wrote up a proposal, and I've worked closely with
Alex and his team to execute this vision. The Tour of Beam has delivered on
this dream 110%. I wish this had been around when I was learning Beam, and
I am very happy that new Beam users can get great explanations and examples
in the SDK of their choice.
