Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this thing called “grode” lately, and let me tell you, it’s been a bit of a journey. I wanted to share my experience, from the very beginning to where I’m at now, just in case it helps someone else out there.

Getting Started
First things first, I had to figure out what this “grode” even was. Turns out, it’s a way to kind of merge * and Go, which sounded pretty wild to me. I mean, I’ve used both, but together? I was curious.
So I started to find a simple example to use it.
The Setup
The first hurdle? Getting the environment set up. This took a bit of trial and error. Make sure you had both * and Go installed, and make it the proper version they need.
- Make sure * and Go were installed. Check, check.
- Then, I installed grode as a package in the * env.
Experimenting
With everything set up, I start to use it in a samll demo.
Create a * and a go file, write some very simple code to test them. Then, use grode command to combine them.

Seeing it Work
After doing all this, I finally tried *, guess what? It worked!
It was a bit clunky at first, and I definitely made some mistakes along the way, it felt pretty good to see this * and Go thing actually happening.
Wrapping Up (For Now)
So, that’s my grode story so far. It’s not perfect, and I’m still learning, but it’s been a fun experiment. I think it’s got potential, especially if you’re like me and dabble in both * and Go. If you’re thinking about trying it, just be prepared for a bit of a learning curve. And hey, if you figure out something cool, let me know!
