Finally! Still in the early days but Go has been lacking in good tooling (at least, not as great as JS) and hopefully this is the mark of things changing.

- closeparen 7y agoGomft and goimports have been great for as long as I’ve been using Go. GoLand had a rocky start but has been excellent for ~2 years. Pprof is awesome. The only weak tooling I saw was dependency management; Dep is great and modules are part of the toolchain now. I can’t agree that Go lacks tooling. Maybe it’s just a disparity in what my company configures out of the box, but I feel better supported by tools in Go than in Python or Java.
- harrygeez 7y agoI don't use GoLand, but one thing that's definitely lacking is good autocomplete support. The language server by sourcegraph isn't too bad, but it often takes more than 10GB RAM for a big project and is not forgiving to errors (i.e. autocomplete, peeking, jumping, referencing will all fail when there are syntax/build errors).
