Coming from Python, I've scarcely missed it, and I certainly wouldn't trade it for the myriad gains from switching to Go.
- dnautics 8y agoComing from python is somewhat of a low bar, compared to more modern and sophisticated PLs.
- weberc2 8y agoMaybe. I just meant that the debugger is a pretty big deal to Python developers, yet I don’t really miss it in Go.
- AlexCoventry 8y agoThe python debugger is great...
- weberc2 8y agoIt’s _fine_, but I rarely (almost never) find myself reaching for it. If I need the debugger, it’s probably a sign that I should be improving the logging so I can troubleshoot production issues. This is especially true in Go where the type checker gives you a lot of confidence that your code works before you run it.
