FAQ

Why Visual Studio Code editor configuration

Developers that use Visual Studio Code can take advantage of the editor configuration. While others do not have to care about it. Setting configs for each repo is unnecessary time consuming. VS Code is the most popular Go editor (survey) and it is officially supported by the Go team.

You can always remove the .vscode directory if it really does not help you.

Why GitHub Actions, not any other CI server

GitHub Actions is out-of-the-box if you are already using GitHub. Here you can learn how to use it for Go.

However, changing to any other CI server should be very simple, because this repository has build logic and tooling installation in Makefile.

How can I build on Windows

Install tdm-gcc and copy C:\TDM-GCC-64\bin\mingw32-make.exe to C:\TDM-GCC-64\bin\make.exe. Alternatively, you may install mingw-w64 and copy mingw32-make.exe accordingly.

Take a look here, if you have problems using Docker in Git Bash.

You can also use WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) or develop inside a Remote Container. However, take into consideration that then you are not going to use "bare-metal" Windows.

Consider using goyek for creating cross-platform build pipelines in Go.

How can I customize the release

Take a look at GoReleaser docs as well as its repo how it is dogfooding its functionality. You can use it to add deb/rpm/snap packages, Homebrew Tap, Scoop App Manifest etc.

If you are developing a library and you like handcrafted changelog and release notes, you are free to remove any usage of GoReleaser.
