gvm VS zap

Compare gvm vs zap and see what are their differences.

gvm

Go Version Manager (gvm) enables seamless installing and swapping between Go versions with a single command. This tool manages a Go environment for the user by allowing a user to specify which Go version they wish to use and handling all of the steps to install and configure that Go version. GVM also supports installing Go from the official Golang master branch so that you can easily try the next version of Go without waiting for a pre release build. (by devnw)
