I know it's not magic, but is so nice when I build my go utility on my Mac with a linux target, copy it and its config to a linux server, and it runs. After dealing with setting up java, node, and python envs for so many years, go is a breath of fresh air on the deployment side.

I've been doing native applications something like forever and all those apps are exactly the same way. Just copy and enjoy. I just do not understand fun of "modern" apps where the amount of tooling and configuration will drive one straight to insanity.
