To create a web server in Go, you can use the http package provided by the standard library. This package includes the http.Server type, which represents an HTTP server, and the http.ListenAndServe() function, which listens for incoming HTTP requests on a specified port and serves responses to those requests.
Here is an example of how you might create a simple web server in Go:
// Import the http package import "net/http" // Define a function that will be called to handle incoming HTTP requests func handler(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) { // Write a response message to the client fmt.Fprintf(w, "Hello, World!") } func main() { // Set up a route that will call the handler function for any requests to the root URL http.HandleFunc("/", handler) // Start the web server and listen for incoming requests on port 8080 http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil) } In this example, the handler() function is defined to handle incoming HTTP requests. This function receives a http.ResponseWriter and a *http.Request as arguments, which are used to write the response message and access information about the incoming request, respectively. The main() function sets up a route that will call the handler() function for any requests to the root URL ("/") and then starts the web server using the http.ListenAndServe() function. This web server will listen for incoming requests on port 8080 and serve responses using the handler() function.
