ls# Install `Golang`

## Compiler

  Download Golang [installer](https://go.dev/dl/). A least on Mac it shall deal with updating your  OS `PATH` environment variable with  `$GOPATH/bin`.
  
## Debugger
  
```bash
go install -v github.com/go-delve/delve/cmd/dlv@latest 
```

# VsCode IDE

- Install [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com)
-  `golang` extension
  To launch *VS Code Quick Open* press (Ctrl + P), type: `ext install Go` ,  hit enter. Follow basic instructions.

# The Project

Inside `Visual Studio Code` Open Folder `Ctrl + Shift + E` , e.g.: `$USER\code\hello\`.  Then Open `hello.go` from that folder. Or make new file (Ctrl + N) and save it on this folder:

```go
package main

import "fmt"

func main() {
    fmt.Println("Hello World!")
    i := 101
    fmt.Println(i)
}
```

Some useful hotkeys:
- `Ctrl + Shift + D` - Open Debugger
- `F9` - set or toggle Breakpoint. *Try this line `i := 101`*
- `F5` - Start Debugging or to Run the Application. If asked to select environment: select `Go`
- `F10` -  Step Over
- `F11` - Step Into
- `Shift + F11` - Step Out
- `Shift + F5` - Stop Debugging
-  `Ctrl + Shift + F5` - Restart Debugging

Typical aka untouched `launch.json` :

```json
{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Launch",
            "type": "go",
            "request": "launch",
            "mode": "debug",
            "remotePath": "",
            "port": 2345,
            "host": "127.0.0.1",
            "program": "${workspaceRoot}",
            "env": {},
            "args": [],
            "showLog": true
        }
    ]
}
```
