> Go used to do raw system calls on macOS, and binaries were occasionally broken by kernel updates. Now Go uses libc on macOS, and binaries are forward compatible with future macOS versions just like any other C/C++/ObjC/swift program. OS X 10.10 (Yosemite) is the current minimum supported version.
