Simple golang development environment for Vagrant.
This project aims to facilitate the use of golang avoiding Operative System dependence issues, in this way we can focus on our development rather than installation configuration issues. You should be note that it is a project aimed at beginner developer so you do not expect anything advanced.

About tools
Go, also commonly referred to as golang, is a programming language developed at Google in 2007 by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson. Designed primarily for systems programming, it is a compiled, statically typed language in the tradition of C and C++, with garbage collection, various safety features and CSP-style concurrent programming features added.
Vagrant is computer software that creates and configures virtual development environments. It can be seen as a higher-level wrapper around virtualization software such as VirtualBox, VMware, KVM and Linux Containers (LXC), and around configuration management software such as Ansible, Chef, Salt, and Puppet.

You can use the vagrant pluging hostupdater:
You can install it with:

You currently only need the hostname and a :private_network network with a fixed IP address.
config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "10.2.2.205"
