What's the most popular editor for Go?
- ramenmeal 9y agoI don't have any backing data, but I think vscode with the go extension is pretty popular.
- drspacemonkey 9y agoCan confirm. VSCode's Go extension is really nice. I started using Atom for Go, but quickly switched over. The only thing I miss from Atom is the extension that shows inline test coverage.
- dnasty 9y agoI'm not familiar with how inline Go test coverage worked in Atom but the VSCode Go extension does include it. There is an action called "Go: Toggle Test Coverage In Current Package" which I think will do the job for you.
- compumike 9y ago(Article author here.) I have the data, and you're right -- a plurality of Go users were using VS Code.
- rajathagasthya 9y agoVim with vim-go plugin is really nice.
- pk2200 9y agoGogland is great, and especially easy to learn if you've used other JetBrains IDEs (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc). https://www.jetbrains.com/go/ https://www.jetbrains.com/go/
- zeveb 9y agoIt's almost certainly not popular (IIRC vim is the most popular Go editor), but emacs with go-mode & company-go makes an extremely effective editing environment.
