instago is a simple and easy to use Go library that simplifies communicating with the Instagram JSON API. I currently only intend for it to use the public functions of the Instagram API that don't require user authentication, however I support some of them if you have an access token.
To use this library, clone the repo into your Go workspace and have a look at some of the demo apps. You'll need to build and install the instago package and get an Instagram API developer ID. Paste your client ID in a file called config.txt in the demos folder to run the samples.
