What is HtmlGo?

HtmlGo allows you to compile and execute applications in a whole new way. Say goodbye to boring lines of code and embrace a more visual and developer-friendly approach. With HtmlGo, all you have to do is write your code in .html files and let its interpreter, developed in NET 6.0, do the rest.

Yes, you heard it right, programming in HTML! But don’t worry, it’s not like the HTML you know. HtmlGo offers a unique way to write instructions using the tags and structure of HTML that you’re already familiar with. It’s like giving a fresh and creative twist to your programming experience.

The HtmlGo interpreter reads your .html file and executes the instructions you’ve created.

Want to be part of this new way of programming? Join the HtmlGo developer community and discover how this language can bring a fun and refreshing twist to your projects. Say goodbye to monotony and welcome a more visual, creative, and HTML-infused programming experience!

Getting Started for Users

Before you can start using HtmlGo to compile and execute applications, you’ll need to perform a simple setup process. This involves downloading the HtmlGo package, extracting it to a directory, and configuring your system’s environment variables. Follow the steps below to get started:

  1. Download the zip file containing the HtmlGo package.
  2. Extract the contents of the zip file to a directory of your choice.
  3. Open the system’s environment variables settings.
  4. Add the directory path where you extracted HtmlGo to the PATH environment variable.
    • For Windows:
    • Press Win + X and select “System”.
    • Click on “Advanced system settings”.
    • In the “System Properties” window, click on the “Environment Variables” button.
    • In the “Environment Variables” window, under “System variables”, select “Path” and click on “Edit”.
    • Add the directory path to the list of paths, separating each path with a semicolon (;).
    • Click “OK” to save the changes. * For macOS and Linux:
    • Open a terminal window.
    • Run the command nano ~/.bash_profile to edit your bash profile.
    • Add the following line at the end of the file: export PATH=”/path/to/htmlgo:$PATH”, replacing “/path/to/htmlgo” with the actual directory path where you extracted HtmlGo.
    • Press Ctrl + X, then Y, and finally Enter to save the changes.

Once you have completed these steps, you have successfully installed HtmlGo on your system. You can now start using HtmlGo to compile and execute applications written in HTML.
