Maybe the syntax is, but setting up the compiler and build system and linkers is very much not, especially for cross-compilation.

One of Go's major selling points is cross-compilation to other OSes and architectures is incredibly simple and fast, and _the same short build command works across every OS._

I maintain a CGO app that targets Windows macOS and multiple Linuxes and oh boy the build system is probably more complex than the app itself at this point.
