+
+**When building a service that runs on the Rover and should interface the ASE framework, you will most likely want to use a [roverlib](https://ase.vu.nl/docs/framework/glossary/roverlib). This is a Go template that incorporates [`roverlib-go`](https://github.com/VU-ASE/roverlib-go), meant to run on the Rover.**
+
+## Initialize a Go service
+
+Instead of cloning this repository, it is recommended to initialize this Go service using `roverctl` as follows:
+
+```bash
+roverctl service init go --name go-example --source github.com/author/go-example
+```
+
+Read more about using `roverctl` to initialize services [here](https://ase.vu.nl/docs/framework/Software/rover/roverctl/usage#initialize-a-service).
+
 
-This is best used in combination with roverctl.
-wip, docs soon.
