This PR implements a comprehensive Golang build system for the futures_engine project with the requested Makefile targets.

What's Added

Core Makefile Targets

  • make test - Runs all tests with verbose output
  • make run - Runs the application directly without building
  • make build - Builds a single binary for the current platform
  • make release - Creates cross-platform release builds for:
    • Linux (AMD64, ARM64)
    • Windows (AMD64)
    • macOS (AMD64, ARM64/Apple Silicon)

Additional Development Targets

  • make test-coverage - Generates test coverage reports
  • make clean - Removes build artifacts
  • make deps - Installs and tidies dependencies
  • make fmt - Formats Go code
  • make lint - Lints code (uses golangci-lint if available, falls back to go vet)
  • make check - Runs format, lint, and test in sequence
  • make dev - Development mode with file watching (if air is installed)
  • make help - Shows all available targets

Project Structure

Since this was a fresh repository, I've also added:

  • Go module initialization (go.mod)
  • Basic application structure (main.go) with a futures engine framework
  • Unit tests (main_test.go) to validate the build system
  • Updated .gitignore to exclude build artifacts

Usage Examples

# Run tests
make test

# Run the application
make run

# Build for current platform
make build

# Create release builds for all platforms
make release

# Show all available targets
make help

The Makefile uses semantic versioning from git tags and includes proper LDFLAGS for version injection into the binary.
