How do i make this work on windows

[ObiajuluM]

I have done everything in the tutorial so far, I have successfully generated the 6 files, how do I run the server the tutorial says to run this ./hello in the terminal, but it doesn't work. it seems like a Linux command

thanks

The filename after building the project on windows will end in .exe. It depends on the folder your code resides in when running the go mod init or on the name you have chosen when using go mod init withsome.com/yourname/hello.

You can also force the name using the following two lines to build the app:

GOARCH=wasm GOOS=js go build -o web/app.wasm
go build -o hello.exe

P.S.: Actually, it sounds as if you are a Go beginner and you could look up some info about building programs with Go using Windows.

hello @oderwat, sorry to disturb you.

I have done the necessary but I get this error when I run the main.go file.

[oderwat]

The main does not end in .exe which happens if the Go environment thinks it is on Linux. Check with go env what GOOS says. I guess it will be "linux" or "darwin" but it must be "windows".

Check this: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/40237 (not the first answer, which is about virus checkers but the later one)

done, it works thanks

Can you recommend any tutorials for Go-app other than the website-provided one? Videos, blogposts, anything

I am not aware of anything like that. I also think that people have different approaches to using it. The only resources I know of are the few public projects that use go-app. We work on a pretty big (and very opinionated) framework that sits on top of (a fork) of Go-App. But that will probably never be (fully) released to the public. We may create some examples in the future. I plan to let some developers create demos with the raw Go-App that can be published when starting to work with our framework.

Sorry to disturb, Do you know any other frameworks similar to this, for building PWAs and in full go code?

[oderwat]

There are vugu, vecty and maybe dashborg-go-sdk are what I know of. I don't comment them :)

Thanks

what framework is that?

[oderwat]

what framework is that?

Our own of course.

[ObiajuluM]

It's private?

[oderwat]

Yes
