How to start a Go project in 2023
How to start a new Go project:<p><pre><code>  go mod init mymodule
</code></pre>
Go's default toolchain is fine, everything else is optional. Some questionable advice in the article:<p>- Vendoring dependencies using "go mod vendor" is not a good default workflow - it bloats the repo, the checked in code is impossible to review, and is generally a pain to keep up to date. Don't, unless you really have to.<p>- There's no point in stripping a binary or even using UPX on it unless you're targeting extremely low memory environments (in which case Go is the wrong tool anyways), all it'll do it make it harder to debug.
