+# golang-tools-install-script
+
+Bash script to automate installation and removal of single-user Go language tools.
+
+Feel free to change the variables on the beginning to match whatever version of Go you need.
+
+Tested working on:
+
+* :white_check_mark: Ubuntu 16.04 to 20.04
+* :white_check_mark: macOS Sierra (10.12) to Big Sur (11.3)
+
+Supported shells:
+* Bash, fish, Zsh
+
+## :hammer: Requirements
+* `wget` or `curl`
+* Bash shell
+
+## :fast_forward: Install
+
+Download and run with `wget` or `curl`. Here's the short version using the official git.io shortening:
+
+```shell
+# Linux typically has wget installed
+wget -q -O - https://git.io/vQhTU | bash
+
+# macOS typically has curl installed
+curl -L https://git.io/vQhTU | bash
+```
+
+Or, if you are more comfortable with the raw URL:
+```shell
+wget -q -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/canha/golang-tools-install-script/master/goinstall.sh | bash
+
+# or...
+curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/canha/golang-tools-install-script/master/goinstall.sh | bash
+```
+
+## :package: Install a custom Go version
+
+Pass the `--version` option into the script including the version that you wish to install.
+
+##### Example:
+
+```shell
+wget -q -O - https://git.io/vQhTU | bash -s -- --version 1.18
+
+# or...
+curl -L https://git.io/vQhTU | bash -s -- --version 1.18
+```
+
+## :no_entry_sign: Uninstall
+
+Pass the `--remove` option into the script:
+
+```shell
+wget -q -O - https://git.io/vQhTU | bash -s -- --remove
+
+# or...
+curl -L https://git.io/vQhTU | bash -s -- --remove
+```
+
+## :pencil: Notes
+
+By default, the script will create `.go` and `go` folders on your home directory and add the needed variables and `PATH` expansion.
+
+`$HOME/.go is the directory where Go will be installed to.`
+
+`$HOME/go is the default workspace directory.`
+
+Read more about the [workspace](http://golang.org/doc/code.html).
+
+In order to install Go into another location, set the environment variables `$GOROOT` and `$GOPATH` before (un)installing:
+
+```shell
+export GOROOT=/opt/go
+export GOPATH=$HOME/projects/go
+```
