Yes, you can definitely use Golang as the base language for your project instead of Java! Here's a quick comparison to help you decide:

• Golang: Simpler syntax, good for beginners, known for concurrency features, compiles to native binaries. (might be a good fit for this project if you're new to development or concurrency is a major requirement)
• Java: Larger ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, mature and stable, well-suited for enterprise applications. (better choice if you need a vast library collection or extensive enterprise support)

Ultimately, the best choice depends on your project's specific needs and your team's experience. Here are some resources to help you learn more about Golang:
