Using the Athens Proxy to Improve Your Golang Projects
About
Golang 1.11 is a big release that introduces modules - a new package management system. We previously had to fetch dependency code directly from GitHub, but now we can download directly from HTTP servers. It’s a huge step forward for Go, and Athens is leading the way toward faster and more reliable builds. I’ll introduce the problem we're solving, demo Athens, and you’ll leave with everything you need to use the public proxy or install it yourself to improve your builds and your workflow. And added bonus: you’ll even be able to work outside of the GOPATH, which is a huge win!
