+## Go lang
+
+By default I decided not to include Go lang, but this doesn't mean you cannot do it by hand:
+
+```c
+/* test.c */
+#include <stdio.h>
+#include <string.h>
+#include <stdlib.h>
+
+#include "hello.h"
+
+int main(void) {
+  HelloWorld();
+  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
+}
+```
+
+**hello.go**
+
+```go
+package main
+
+import "fmt"
+import "C"
+
+//export HelloWorld
+func HelloWorld() {
+  fmt.Printf("Hello %d", 123)
+}
+
+func main() {}
+```
+
+build it with:
+
+```bash
+go build -buildmode=c-archive hello.go
+gcc -pthread test.c hello.a -o test
+# test it with:
+./test
+```
+
+Obviously the Go code should return string when you make it into standalone module. It's easy to add the above code into standalone module that can be used by pinky-bar.
+
 ## Wish list
 
 It would be great if I had \*BSD compatible usb wifi dongle or wireless pci adapter to add wifi options in pinky-bar.
