- dufferzafar 12y agoWould rewriting the application just to be able to provide releases make sense? What other benefits can one get when writing command line applications in Go? (as compared to python) I am asking this because I myself plan to write a small command line tool in Python. I have never wrote (or read) a line of Go though, so would like to know.
- joshbaptiste 12y agoCreating it in Go would relieve the user of installing and/or compiling any other libs to run the application in Python, a set of static binaries which could be compiled to run on FreeBSD,OSX,Linux,Windows without much effort.
