@catskul, if you look in the go.mod, you'll see that this module requires Go 1.18 or higher. If your Go SDK doesn't recognize "embed" and "net/netip" as standard library packages, then you almost certainly have an older version of Go. Update to Go 1.18 (or newer: latest version is 1.22).

Oh! Good to know, thanks!

I'm surprised that golang doesn't respect that and fail based on version, or at the very least complain.
