MCP Tutorials

Clone the mcp-tutorials repository to your local machine to access all tutorial code examples.

git clone https://github.com/chenmingyong0423/mcp-tutorials.git
cd mcp-tutorials

The repository contains a tutorials folder with written guides and a code-examples folder with runnable Go code. Browse these to find the tutorial relevant to your learning goal.

ls tutorials/
ls code-examples/

The code examples use the ThinkInAIXYZ/go-mcp library. Navigate to a code example directory and download dependencies.

cd code-examples/overview
go mod download

Build and run one of the example MCP servers, such as the IP information query server. This gives you a running MCP server you can connect a client to.

go run main.go

Once your Go MCP server is running, add it to your MCP client configuration using the compiled binary path or go run command.
