Setup Go environment

Demo with go mod

mkdir my-demo // Create a project folder, or clone a github repository    
cd my-demo
touch main.go // Create a file if we are starting the project
go mod init my-demo // This will initiate the module
go build // This will build

` Now if you add an import, if VSCODE is configured properly (user.settings), then auto-complete for used imports

Refer Golang doc.
