2 quick questions (no need to upvote)

<p>1) I&#39;m looking for a general usage language that is fast and simple. I might also use it to write small utilities that complement the slowest parts of my web application. I don&#39;t care about job prospects (for Go) but I care about the language not dying tomorrow (people stop creating and maintaining packages). Is Go for me?</p> <p>2) Can or will you, in the near future, be able to write Android apps with it? Using Android&#39;s native component (UI).</p> <hr/>**评论：**<br/><br/>scottjbarr: <pre><p>1) I find Go to be excellent for building little utilities. I also use it for building API&#39;s services, messaging systems, and other types of backend systems.</p> <p>2) Regarding building Android apps with it, there are some projects working towards this.</p> <p>Give it a try :)</p></pre>sh41: <pre><p>From my perspective/opinion, yes and probably.</p> <p>To learn more about 2, try to see the talk that Elias Naur gave about <code>gomobile</code> and the direction it&#39;s heading in at dotGo 2016.</p></pre>caseynashvegas: <pre><p>Any link to the Elias Naur talk? I&#39;ve been trying to find it but cannot.</p></pre>sh41: <pre><p>It&#39;s not available yet, the videos are still being edited and should be up sometime within a few weeks.
