#go

In 2015, I started a project called http.hugo, which was a just a simple plugin for Caddy, a really fast web server built with Go with automatic HTTPS. At the time, the plugin was exclusive for Caddy and it provided a simple UI to edit your files in the server, rebuild the website and so on. They were just simple features.

Go is a relatively new player in the world of programming, having been around since 2009. It was created by Google and many open-source contributors.

It has recently reached version 1.9 and 2.0 is on its way. Despite having only 8 years, its popularity has been increasing exponentially, mainly on networking and web server fields.
