I'm not very familiar with Go, but from what I understand Go is the antithesis of this feature in many ways. AFAIK the tools are all stand-alone command line applications which you have to run every time you want to check whether you're on the right track. Go tools which generate code are an even worse example. If your language good abstraction capabilities your development environment could understand your intentions much better than with generated code.

Go does not take the suggested approach, but certainly seems to prioritize iteration speed by making each step of the staged approach fast.

> AFAIK the tools are all stand-alone command line applications which you have to run every time you want to check whether you're on the right track. I really don't understand this distinction. My tools run those commands for me. I type in my editor, and it tells me if the compilation fails. My editor is also far more responsive and uses far less ram than the typical java IDE, so it feels faster to me, not slower.
