initialize go project

To initialize a Go project, follow these steps:

  1. Open your terminal or command prompt.
  2. Navigate to the directory where you want to create your Go project.
  3. Run the command go mod init <module_name>. Replace <module_name> with the name of your project/module. This command initializes a new Go module and creates a go.mod file in your project directory.
  4. After running the command, you will see a message indicating that the module has been initialized successfully. The message will also display the module path, which is the import path for your project's packages.
  5. Your Go project is now initialized and ready to use. You can start writing your Go code in this directory or create subdirectories as needed.

Note: The go mod init command is used to initialize a Go module, which is a collection of related Go packages that can be versioned and managed together. The go.mod file generated by this command keeps track of the project's dependencies and their versions.

That's it! You have successfully initialized a Go project. Let me know if you have any further questions.
