Pkg.go.dev

Pkg.go.dev is a website for discovering and evaluting Go packages and modules.

Roadmap

Pkg.go.dev launched in November 2019, and is currently under active development by the Go team.

Our current goal is to work on addressing the UX feedback we have received. You can expect pkg.go.dev to be slated for some design changes coming soon. We plan to share these designs for feedback with everyone once they are ready.

Longer term, we are working towards redirecting godoc.org traffic to pkg.go.dev. We want to ensure that we address users' needs in the process. Read more about our next steps for pkg.go.dev. Issues related to redirecting godoc.org traffic are being tracked in Go issue #39144. We plan to address these issues before redirecting traffic from godoc.org to pkg.go.dev.

We encourage everyone to begin using pkg.go.dev today for all of their needs and file feedback! You can redirect all of your requests from godoc.org to pkg.go.dev, by clicking Always use pkg.go.dev at the top of any page on godoc.org.

If you are having issues with pkg.go.dev, please first check the known issues before following the troubleshooting guide. If that does not give you the information you need, reach out to us.
