The setup is a mess

[jwillmer]

I'm working on Windows in WSL. I cloned this template and followed the documentation to build it but so far I was not able to. This is what happened when running make:

• go not found

• install go

• npm not installed

• installing npm

• eslint not installed

• installing eslint

• eslint package-[...] not installed

• run npm install in webapp directory

• eslint line feed error

• run eslint with --fix

• eslint Failed at the @ lint script

• removing eslint in Makefile (workaround not a solution!)

• golangci-lint is not installed

• install golangci-lint

• golangci-lint: context loading failed: failed to load packages

• deleted repository and created this issue

You won't get many plugins from 3d-party developers with such a horrible setup experience. If you can't automate the tasks then at least explain the manual setup process.

Additional remarks:

• add .vs/ and node_modules/ to .gitignore

I managed now to run it under WSL by not using any tool from Windows and storing the data in the WSL container. Still the point is that the "starter-template" is not for starters.

Would be nice to have a list of software packages (with minimum version) that has to be installed,
or maybe better a reference distribution like Debian11 or Ubuntu X.Y.Z ...

on debian 11 i did -->

sudo apt install golangci-lint nodejs npm
sudo apt install golang -t testing
