Hi there, i am new to Go, and i would like to configure fyne to my project, since i saw that it has some nice GUI elements that i would like to use for my project. I looked through the tutorials online saying i should use "go get" but in the terminal its saying its deprecated i should use "go install". I am using go 1.23. Can someone tell me step by step how i get it to work?

ruby stirrup
Do you have the a C compiler and cgo enabled?
spiral apex
How do i check if its enabled?
ruby stirrup
Try do CGO_ENABLED=1 go run main.go
spiral apex
it throws an commandNotFoundException
ruby stirrup

semi related - isn't there some pure go UI libs? all that cgo stuff is a pain

I mean, there’s puregotk, which is still C, but it bypasses CGo and doesn’t need a C compiler
It also only works on Linux
