 ## How Go exposition works
 
-To expose Prometheus metrics in a Go application, you need to provide a `/metrics` HTTP endpoint. You can use the [`prometheus/promhttp`](https://godoc.org/github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp) library's HTTP [`Handler`](https://godoc.org/github.com/prometheus/client_golang/prometheus/promhttp#Handler) as the handler function.

 This minimal application, for example, would expose the default metrics for Go applications via `http://localhost:2112/metrics`:

 ## Adding your own metrics
 
-The application [above](#how-go-exposition-works) exposes only the default Go metrics. You can also register your own custom application-specific metrics. This example application exposes a `myapp_processed_ops_total` [counter](/docs/concepts/metric_types/#counter) that counts the number of operations that have been processed thus far. Every 2 seconds, the counter is incremented by one.

 ## Summary
 
-In this guide, you created two sample Go applications that expose metrics to Prometheus---one that exposes only the default Go metrics and one that also exposes a custom Prometheus counter---and configured a Prometheus instance to scrape metrics from those applications.
