Our system is build on Ubuntu core18.04 LTS, the default Go lang version is 1.10 for compatibility reason. If you like to install later verions see several guides on the internet. The snapcraft version used actually is not updateable in WSL because the later versions are only available as a snap not as an apt package. Therefore an update would need some more effort/knowledge because the later snapcraft version are working with multipass or lxd containers for its building process only. And therefor a WSL2 would be necessary that this in untested until now. The other way is using a VM with a native ubuntu installed, like also mentioned in the SDK documentation. See also some information about go applications in snaps provided by canonical. ... View more

Please beware that this is an early development state of this app. With the RM21.03 (version 1.8) end of this month there will be the first release of the IDE app that includes graphical and textual coding. The axis creation is not longer usable as a command but only in the project settings because of a different approach of the axes handling. So for your case in the first line you are using this command from an even older version that is not longer available in the version you are using. In the second line the function of the object "myAxis" is not declared.   I would suggest you should wait for the first release and then go on with tests from there on. ... View more
