C is 30 years old, so it has an excuse. Go has none. The fact that it's extremely difficult to write a classic, complex webapp in Go is a proof that this language has serious flaws.
- fishnchips 10y agoIt is just as easy as doing it in Rust or Swift - both being thoroughly modern languages. It's more about the lack of comprehensive frameworks than the language being somehow flawed. I used Go as a backend for mobile apps and it was OK but where it really shines is the kind of workload we do when analysing source code: where you need excellent performance and low memory footprint, all that while keeping the code readable.
