Golang proposal: container/: generic collection types

Quality: 8/10 Relevance: 9/10

Summary

Go's Go Collections working group proposes new generic collection types for the Go standard library in Go 1.28, including hash-based maps/sets, ordered maps, and heap structures; it also introduces abstract constraint interfaces to enable cross-type helper functions. The proposal outlines API goals, design rationale, and future directions for collections in Go.
