  Bob is a high-level build tool for multi-language projects. (by benchkram)

  

I use https://bob.build to switch between go versions in my build graph. It's like... ... build: cmd: go build dependencies: [go_1_18]

• goenv

  :blue_car: Like pyenv and rbenv, but for Go.

  

I use GoEnv. I hate that I have to do it, but I have valid (if annoying) reasons. I'd rather just keep the most recent version installed.

If you are using a Unix based system you can use: https://github.com/stefanmaric/g I use it daily and works like charm, I only had some problems using `godoc` but it is solveble if you set the GOPATH to the go location and not the g installation directory

Yeah! I combine gimme with direnv , then entering a module root with a proper .envrc automatically sets the golang version in the shell, and also installs the version if its not present yet.
