This doesn't mean that Go always produces such binaries by default, however; in some scenarios it requires extra work to make this happen. Specifics here are OS-dependent; here we focus on Unix systems. Basics - hello world This post goes over a series of experiments: we take simple programs and use go build to produce binaries on a Linux machine. We then examine whether the produced binary is statically or dynamical...
