I'm trying to figure out how to convert NodeJS code like this:
const buffer = new Buffer(24);
offset = buffer.writeUInt32BE(this.a, offset);
offset = buffer.writeUInt32BE(this.b, offset);
offset = buffer.writeUInt8(this.c, offset);
offset = buffer.writeUInt16BE(d, e); 1 : 0, offset);
buffer.writeInt8(this.f, offset);
to Go.
I figured I could use
buffer := make([]byte, 24)
buffer[0] = a
buffer[2] = b
but this is not working
is there a recommended way to do something like this with Go?

You should use binary.ByteOrder.
So in your case, using Big Endian, something like :
package main
import (
"encoding/binary"
)
func main() {
buffer := make([]byte, 24)
// Uint32
binary.BigEndian.PutUint32(buffer, 1)
binary.BigEndian.PutUint32(buffer[4:], 2)
// Uint8
buffer[8] = 3
// Uint16
binary.BigEndian.PutUint16(buffer[9:], 4)
// Uint8
buffer[13] = 5
}
