Getting Started

To get started with your Golang application, follow these steps:

  1. Install Golang: Download and install Golang from the official website.

  2. Set Up Your Workspace: Create a new directory for your project and set your GOPATH environment variable to point to this directory.

  3. Initialize Your Project: Inside your project directory, run the following command to initialize a new Go module:

    go mod init github.com/your-username/project-name
    

    After installing Golang, you can start running your Go project.

  4. Run without Debugging: In your terminal, navigate to the directory containing your main Go file (usually named main.go). Then, run the following command to build and execute your Go application:

    go run main.go
    

    This command will compile and execute your Go program without generating a binary file.
