Build Your Developer Tools in Go
summary
ngrok is a real, shipped tool so the talk lists concrete solutions: embed static files into one binary using go-bindata to avoid deployment pain; avoid brittle cross‑compiles by automating native builds on VMs (Vagrant/Jenkins) after discovering an SSE2 float failure on Windows 2000 that only a runtime tweak fixes; terminal UI uses termbox and a mousetrap hack to detect double‑click launches; auto‑update swaps binaries with binary diffs and code signing and works; crash reporting remains unresolved beyond an AST‑rewriting prototype that wraps goroutines.
