+# go-getting-started
+
+A barebones Go app, which can easily be deployed to Heroku.  
+
+This application supports the [Getting Started with Go on Heroku](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-go) article - check it out.
+
+## Running Locally
+
+Make sure you have [Go](http://golang.org/doc/install) and the [Heroku Toolbelt](https://toolbelt.heroku.com/) installed.
+
+```sh
+$ go get -u github.com/heroku/go-getting-started/...
+$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/heroku/go-getting-started
+$ foreman start web
+```
+
+Your app should now be running on [localhost:5000](http://localhost:5000/).
+
+You should also install [Godep](https://github.com/tools/godep) if you are going to add any dependencies to the sample app.
+
+## Deploying to Heroku
+
+```sh
+$ heroku create
+$ git push heroku master
+$ heroku open
+```
+
+## Documentation
+
+For more information about using Go on Heroku, see these Dev Center articles:
