Deploy your application

GoLand assumes that all development, debugging, and testing is done on your computer and then the code is deployed to a production environment.

The reason to stick to this "local development - deployment" model lies in the way GoLand provides code completion, code inspections, code navigation, and other coding assistance features. All this functionality is based on the project files index which GoLand builds when the project is loaded and updates on the fly as you edit your code.

To provide efficient coding assistance, GoLand needs to re-index code fast, which requires fast access to project files. The latter can be ensured only for local files, that is, files that are stored on you hard disk and are accessible through the file system.
