Hey -- been dorking around with Go for a few months now. I started with VSC and the various Go plug-ins, and it got me about 50% of what I'd like to have in a development environment.
I've since then switched to JetBrains' GoLand IDE. It's fantastic... lots of good, useful help, very fast. One thing I'd recommend is to set up an "On Save" event to run "goimports". Then you get automagic import correction, and very nice pretty-printing (I think it runs "gofmt" under the hood).
Notably, all the tools such as "goimports" are already installed, and if you want a debugger, I believe that's built in as well (I gave up on debuggers a long time ago).
Enjoy -- it's a fun language, and there are a ton of useful open-source projects to learn from and leverage.
