Can I natively build self-contained binaries? One of Go's biggest advantages is the delivery chain from code to server (build for target arch, copy to target, ./run)?
I can vouch for it! I returned to C# for a tiny desktop GUI recently. I was blown away by how simple is the tooling to create a single monolithic binary. It's great for enterprise distribution. "No more installer."
I had to deal with it, when I hadto parse Transac-SQL code, and it's not handy. Very difficult to have a single executable file containing everything, it needs a whole subtree.
OCaml is easier with Opam and ocamlbuild tools.
