    Needed a more robust way, which is provided by this package called fresh. Fresh is a command line tool that builds and (re)starts your web application everytime you save a Go or template file. You can also customise the log color that comes with the default fresh setup. It requires a default runner.conf file. If you want to go with the default options, you don't even need this file on your project root.
