I'm all for shoe-horning languages I like to do things that they aren't optimised for to create tools that already exist!

But actually, I am. And this is pretty cool.
I think it might make more sense to use one of the Go Gui libraries to do this though (speaking of things the language isn't optimised for).

Looks good so far!

Thank you! I totally hear you, but I want the series to be super friendly for beginners and IMO HTML is the easiest way to hack together a basic UI.

Maybe I'll create another series about GUI programming in Go 😉
