    Until quite recently, Go did not have built-in package versioning like npm or cargo. This led to incompatibile versioning add-ons, like godep and glide, which made packages with nested dependencies difficult to consume. E.g. see this old INSTALL.md from kubernetes/client-go.

    That is what I ran into. I googled glide and found that glide.sh is deprecated. I actually was able to run go mod init and go mod tidy and run the file containing the main function, but that was not at all the direction the file appeared to be designed in. The project actually used a makefile combined with glide to build the project. Is this mode of building outdated? E.g. to continue development on the app, the first thing I should do is convert to the "new" system?
