This is the source code repository for the Go programming language.  

For documentation about how to install and use Go,
visit http://golang.org/ or load doc/install.html in your web browser.

After installing Go, you can view a nicely formatted
doc/install.html by running godoc --http=:6060
and then visiting http://localhost:6060/doc/install.html.

Binary Distribution Notes

If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, then there are some
environment variables you'll need to set in your .profile (or equivalent):

    GOOS should be set to your operating system (eg, linux),
    GOARCH should be your processor architecture (eg, amd64),
    GOROOT should be the directory you extracted the tarball to,
    GOBIN should point to $GOROOT/bin.

For example, if you downloaded the tarball 

    go.release.YYYY-MM-DD.linux-amd64.tar.gz 

and extracted it to 

    /home/username/go

you would set the following variables:

    export GOOS=linux
    export GOARCH=amd64
    export GOROOT=/home/username/go
    export GOBIN=$GOROOT/bin

See doc/install.html for more detail about these flags.

Additionally, $GOROOT should be in your $PATH:
    
    export PATH=PATH:$GOROOT
