Thanks to <a href="https://tinygo.org" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TinyGo</a> , you can write Go code for microcontrollers like the Arduino. And yes, it’s as fun and straightforward as it sounds.</p> <p>In this post, I’ll walk you through building a soil moisture sensor that reads data and displays it on an LCD screen—all written in Go using TinyGo.</p>
