The current "How I start Go" article uses GOPATH development mode. In version 1.11 Go modules were introduced and since that that's the recommended way of setting up a new project. Furthermore, GOPATH mode is deprecated from version 1.16 and going to be removed in the future.

Thanks for the reminder. I spoke to the author, @peterbourgon, at one point and he was working on an update. So it should just be a matter of his having some free time to work on it :)

Maybe it is a big enough confusion that I should add a note to the top of the page linking to the docs about the change.

I reached out to @peterbourgon again.

Maybe we can find someone he'd be ok with updating his post or someone to write an additional one. It was always my intention to have multiple posts for each language, giving unique views at each authors dev setup.

It's been quite some time since I reported this. I had to check what I reported to remind myself.

Let me know if there is anything I can help with.

I've been reaching out to various people to try to find someone new to write a Go post. If anyone who sees this has a suggestion on a potential author I can reach out to please let me know.
