go-init


The simple no fuss solution to your Go ambitions.

go-init:

  • Provides option to select the version of go to be downloaded.
  • Downloads appropriate go binary of your selected version for your platform from official google source.
  • Extracts the binary and runs it,
  • Setups $GOROOT and $GOPATH by entering required path variables into your zsh or bash shell automatically.
