+# Install Go language with a Bash script
+
+Another alternative to installing Go is to use a simple Bash script.
+It will download and install Go language under of your own user account.
+
+Note that a system-wide installation might be better for some things
+(for example, better protected from accidental modifications etc.),
+but this was a bit simpler to setup.
+
+For this example, we are using:
+- https://github.com/canha/golang-tools-install-script
+
+
+## Create directory
+
+```sh
+mkdir -p ~/git/GitHub/canha
+```
+
+## Clone Git repository
+
+```sh
+cd ~/git/GitHub/canha
+git clone https://github.com/canha/golang-tools-install-script 
+cd golang-tools-install-script/
+```
+
+## Install a 64-bit version
+
+```sh
+bash goinstall.sh --64
+```
+Script downloads the version specified in the Bash script
+(at the moment 1.9.2) and installs it to `~/.go` directory.
+
+
+## Check that it was added to your shell config 
+
+```sh
+cat ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+## Reload your shell
+
+```sh
+source ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+## Try if it works
+
+```sh
+go help
+```
+
+That should show a quick help for the `go` command.
