 If you want to install golang, normally you are following the description on the [official dowload page](https://golang.org/dl/)
 
 There is a WIP tool for installing golang in a machine/os independent way called **getgo**. Source is available on [github](https://github.com/golang/tools/tree/master/cmd/getgo)

 ```
 curl -LO https://get.golang.org/$(uname)/go_installer && chmod +x go_installer && ./go_installer && rm go_installer
