How to write Go code

How to write Go code: https://golang.org/doc/code.html

• Use a single workspace
• Each workspace contains many repositories
• Each repository contains one or more packages
• Each package consists of one or more Go source files in a single directory
• The path to a package's directory determines its import path

How to organize your workspace

bin/
    hello                          # command executable
    outyet                         # command executable
src/
    github.com/golang/example/
        .git/                      # Git repository metadata
	hello/
	    hello.go               # command source
