This page helps you set your GOPATH environment variable after [installing go](https://golang.org/doc/install).
<hr/>
The GOPATH environment variable is a directory where all Go projects live.
First, make your GOPATH directory
```bash
> mkdir ~/go
```
Then, set environment variables in your shell startup script. On OS X, this is `~/.bash_profile`. For different operating systems or shells, the path may be different. For Ubuntu, it may be `~/.profile` or `~/.bashrc`.
```bash
echo export GOPATH=\"\$HOME/go\" >> ~/.bash_profile
echo export PATH=\"\$PATH:\$GOPATH/bin\" >> ~/.bash_profile
```
