Setup your Go environment

To be able to run Wasmer inside our Go application, we will need Go to be installed in our system.

The easiest way to get Go in your system is to follow the official documentation.

To ensure it is installed, let's run the following:

go version # This will show the Go version

If these commands work, Go is successfully installed!

Now it's time to create new projects and add Wasmer as a dependency:

mkdir wasmer-project
cd wasmer-project
go mod init github.com/$USER/wasmer-project

Now, edit the go.mod file to add wasmer-go as a dependency:

require (
    require github.com/wasmerio/wasmer-go v1.0.0
)

For a detailed installation instructions, please refer to Wasmer Go integration documentation.

Next, let's take a look at some examples!
