My only complaint about go is the lack of a Go supported IDE. There are lots of paid ones out there, but I've spent the morning looking for a good one that runs

  > My only complaint about go is the lack of a Go supported IDE. There are lots of paid ones out there, but I've spent the morning looking for a good one that runs in a web browser that are easy to install. I am not sure why would you want to run your IDE in a web browser, but Visual Studio Code [1] is regarded by the Go community as one of the best code editors (with plugins) [2] to develop Go projects, and in case you do not know already, Visual Studio Code is technically a web browser [3]. That being said, Goland [4] is probably one of the best integrated development environments for Go programming out there.

    Plus if you want VS Code in the browser there's Coder.com (both hosted and open source varieties)

  are there a lot of IDEs that run in a browser? that seems like a really odd requirement to me.

    I know of none off the top of my head, though perhaps when they say "IDE" they really mean a code editor, so there's Cloud9, Coder.com, and the like.

  Maybe gitpod.io would be to your liking?
