Go Tour

A Tour of Go is an introduction to the Go programming language. Visit https://tour.golang.org to start the tour.

Download/Install

To install the tour from source, first install Go and then run:

$ go install golang.org/x/website/tour@latest

This will place a tour binary in your GOPATH's bin directory. The tour program can be run offline.

Contributing

Contributions should follow the same procedure as for the Go project: https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html

To run the tour server locally:

go run .

Your browser should now open. If not, please visit http://localhost:3999/.

Report Issues / Send Patches

This repository uses Gerrit for code changes. To learn how to submit changes to this repository, see https://golang.org/doc/contribute.html.

The issue tracker for the tour's code is located at https://github.com/golang/go/issues. Prefix your issue with “x/website/tour:” in the subject line, so it is easy to find.

Issues with the tour's content itself should be reported in the issue tracker at https://github.com/golang/tour/issues.

Deploying

Each time a CL is reviewed and submitted, the tour is automatically deployed to App Engine. If the CL is submitted with a Website-Publish +1 vote, the new deployment automatically becomes https://tour.golang.org/. Otherwise, the new deployment can be found in the App Engine versions list and verified and manually promoted.

If the automatic deployment is not working, or to check on the status of a pending deployment, see the “website-redeploy-tour” trigger in the Cloud Build console.
