The parent said Go has all that Java has to offer. I would be surprised if the standard library was in the same magnitude of size.

- Leace 8y agoYes, exactly. Having used Java and many other languages for years Java's strongest point is tooling - there are high quality tools for any aspect of software lifecycle. A lot of them available for free. Of course new languages are quickly getting more and more tools but sometimes I feel that they are just reinventing the wheel (sometimes squared). For example: it's easy to host a mirror Maven repository, the file structure is very simple, even with per-project setting. It's not that straightforward with npm or cargo, they push you into centralized model with paid private repositories (npm).
