  • I don't write Go programs often enough that usually Golang is not installed in my machine. But when I need to, installing Go was a bit painful and confusing enough for me (surprisingly almost every time!). And my usual approach to deal with this issue is using Docker. All though I often use containers like in a way of using VM to avoid polluting my host machine, a container is no localhost, so it's limited and it could "force" you to be container "expert" when you don't need to be just yet.

  • Since I do like to isolate environments, reuse configurations and reproduce those setups to multiple devices, I've been using my own dotfiles and sometimes, containers.
