setting up emacs for go programming language
It seems that most Go utilities have been submerged into gopls, the LSP server. So a lot of older websites that suggest how to configure go-mode might be outdated, because of the cultural shift away from the unix-ish little, collaborative utilities approach. This means you will need a LSP client -- the Go project has some documentation on that. I'd strongly recommend Eglot, if you are uncertain what to use(0). This page explains how to install gopls with your Go toolchain.

Is there an emacs equivalent of "Dash.app" ?
I haven't used Dash, so I don't know the specifics of what it works, but if it works like running pydoc or godoc or whatever Java has inside your text editor, here is a plugin for pydoc inside emacs and here's another for godoc (as part of a larger mode for go). I just tested godoc and it seems to work fine, if a little too basic.

How can I use the Go language on emacs?
This question makes very little sense to be honest. Try using spacemacs. It has a go language server runner. Otherwise try this https://github.com/dominikh/go-mode.el

I've found what I've been looking for!!
And if you do stick with Zeal, there is the zeal-at-point package. You still need the external Zeal reader, but at least it gives you a convenient way to lookup stuff in it from within Emacs.

Is there an emacs equivalent of "Dash.app" ?
I’ve used Zeal (a cross-platform Dash alternative) with zeal-at-point. Recently though I’ve gone all in on LSP, and highly recommended. Speaking from experience, at least for Haskell and Go, the integrated documentation is excellent.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing GNU/Emacs go-mode and zeal-at-point you can also consider the following projects:
vim-go - Go development plugin for Vim
pydoc - Emacs mode for navigating Python documentation through pydoc.
lsp-mode - Emacs client/library for the Language Server Protocol
dash-docs - A elisp library that exposes functionality to work with and search dash docsets.
Go for Visual Studio Code
counsel-dash - Browse Dash docsets using Ivy
Watch - Watches for changes in a directory tree and reruns a command in an acme win or just on the terminal.
devdocs.el - Emacs viewer for DevDocs
vscode-go - Go extension for Visual Studio Code
vscode-go-doc - An Microsoft Visual Code extension for Golang to print symbol definition to output
