* Prerequisites
** Go
To get started with Go, you need the ~go~ tool:

*** MacOS
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
brew install go
#+END_SRC

*** Arch Linux
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
sudo pacman -S go
#+END_SRC

** Dependencies
This module requires a valid ~GOPATH~, and the following Go packages:

+ ~gocode~ (for code completion & eldoc support)
+ ~godoc~ (for documentation lookup)
+ ~gorename~ (for extra refactoring commands)
+ ~gore~ (for the REPL)
+ ~guru~ (for code navigation & refactoring commands)
+ ~goimports~ (optional: for auto-formatting code on save & fixing imports)
