Looks interesting. However, I don't like to have a Go compiler on the production machine for security reasons, as well as to reduce even more the system base.

I think instead that the compiler should be needed only to deploy binaries and should stay on the syadmin's machine. The Go toolchain is very good at cross-compiling, so there should not be a need for the compiler on the target machine.
- secure 3y agoI don’t know where you got the impression that the Go compiler would run on “the production machine”. gokrazy images are built whereever you like (typically your PC, or some more automated setup) and then deployed to the target device. There is no Go toolchain on the target device.
