Hello World - A Git Repo vs. Go Package Naming Test

This repo is to experiment with naming a Github repo and Go package differently.

  • The Github repository go-hello-world is more descriptive (let's pretend that's the case for this example), than hello which is what I would like to use for my Go package name.
  • Binary installation using Go is also descriptive - that you will end up with a hello-world binary: go install github.com/ivanfetch/go-hello-world/cmd/hello-world
  • Although I have to import "github.com/ivanfetch/go-hello-world", I can still refer to my desired Go package name of hello, for example when calling hello.Print().
  • If others import this code for use in their own project, is the different import (go-hello-world) and package prefix (hello) a bad experience?
  • I could name my Github repo ivanfetch/hello which would match the Go package name, but it's nice for the repo name to be more descriptive than a GO package should be.
