It’s very general purpose. You can build web apps, CLI tools, scripts, etc. I’ve mostly been playing with web apps as of late though.

Very cool I was about to play with Ruby for web apps may give go a try over it. Thank you.
I’ve also really thought about trying Ruby but Go was more relevant in my fiat job. I also really like having a type system. It helps me conceptualize the flow of data better than when I was using python.
