Air is a live-reloading command line utility for developing Go applications that watches files and automatically rebuilds and restarts the app. It is a development-time tool only and is not intended for production hot-deploy.
Use cases
- auto rebuild and restart go server on file save
- live reload for go web apps during development
- watch go files and rerun binary
- speed up go development loop
- browser auto reload for go backend
- run go app in docker with hot reload
When to choose
- you develop Go web services or CLIs and want instant rebuild/restart on save
- you want configurable watch rules, env files, and Docker support for a Go dev loop
When to avoid
- you need production hot-deploy or zero-downtime restarts
- your project is not written in Go
