Write Once, Compile Lots, Run Anywhere
summary
Claims that Go makes distribution practical by cross-compiling to native binaries: demonstrates using GOOS/GOARCH with go build and go env to produce multiple targets (he counts ~44 combos but focuses on darwin/linux/windows amd64), uses goreleaser and Docker to script builds and reuse module caches, shows asset bundling into one static binary, and warns that PT_INTERP missing on Alpine (CGO-enabled builds can produce dynamic ELF interpreters that break on other distros).
