Watch a Video

In general, I always recommend this official video from Go to get a quick overview on the matter:

It's easier to be shown than to be told.

@jwfearn paraphrased the important part of the video:

export GOPATH="${HOME}/gocode"; export PATH="${PATH}:${GOPATH}/bin"; mkdir -p "${GOPATH}"
