Go Wiki: X-Repositories

The golang.org/x/... repositories are part of the Go Project but outside the main Go tree.

They are developed under looser compatibility requirements than the Go core. In general, they will support the previous two releases and tip.

These repositories should have no third-party dependencies apart from other golang.org/x/… repositories. The only exceptions are golang.org/x/tools/gopls, golang.org/x/vscode-go, and golang.org/x/pkgsite. If you would like to add a new dependency to an x repository, please file an issue and cc @rsc and @andybons.

Install them with “go get”.
