Embed Static Files into Your Go Binary Using statik

If you’re developing a Go application with a web front‑end, you’ll often need to bundle static assets like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images. Hand‑carrying those files or deploying them separately can be error‑prone. The statik tool solves this by embedding an entire directory into your Go binary. In this tutorial you’ll learn how to install statik, generate the embedded source, filter file types, access files at runtime, and serve them with an HTTP server. Following the step‑by‑step example will let you ship a single binary, simplify deployment, and maintain deterministic builds.
