Flutter desktop 'hover' can not be recognised

Question

I am trying to run my flutter app on desktop with hover.

I ran this command to install hover

go get -u github.com/go-flutter-desktop/hover

I have GO installed and the command above finishes the installation without any error, however when I try to use the command 'hover' I get the following error.

The term 'hover' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. At line:1 char:1.

Which I know may mean I do not have it added to my path. How do I add hover to my path. I do not see any file or folder in the installation directory called hover .

You have to add the binary that you downloaded to your path. — Christopher Moore, May 07 '21 at 16:38
I typed the go get command from my home directory on widows. I do not know where the hover binary was placed. I tried looking for it in the pkg folder and scr folder but could not find it. — Norbert, May 07 '21 at 16:41

You need to add the binary you downloaded to your PATH.

Assuming your $GOPATH is set, you can add $GOPATH/bin to your PATH.
