To build it? Yes. To run it? No. Go apps don't require a runtime. The only thing necessary is distributing the platform-specific binary.

- chimeracoder 12y ago> Go apps don't require a runtime. Go applications do require a runtime, but the executable is statically linked, so the binary executable ships with the runtime. The rest of what you said is correct. The only reason you need the Go development tools installed is to develop the application or to compile it from source.
