Overview
With gokrazy, you can deploy your Go programs as appliances to a Raspberry Pi or PC (→ supported platforms).
For a long time, we were unhappy with having to care about security issues and Linux distribution maintenance on our various Raspberry Pis.
Then, we had a crazy idea: what if we got rid of memory-unsafe languages and all software we don’t strictly need?
Turns out this is feasible. gokrazy is the result.

Documentation
gokrazy.org uses hugo for creating and generating the website. You can find the hugo install instructions here: Install Hugo. With hugo you can write documentation in Markdown and generate a static website from it.
The website subdirectory is hugo’s root directory. In order to preview the
documentation or to re-generate the website, switch the directory to website.
To preview the website, run the hugo webserver:
hugo serve
Generate the website:
hugo
The updated website content will be stored in the ./docs directory.
Do not update anything here manually.
