> So... why does Go exist? Because it does offer an alternative to C/C++ for some projects that need to be fast while learning the language requires very little investment. And I say that as someone that has been criticizing Go for a decade. Go has its place. It's absolutely faster than both Python and Node.js as a HTTP Server,produces faster tooling for linux/PC , it's easy to distribute programs written in Go... It is not serious alternative to Enterprise Java development, but neither are Python nor Typescript. However, I don't think Go's opensource ecosystem is comprehensive compared to Python's or Node.js and it is ironically due to how rigid the language used to be which impaired code generalization since it made polymorphism difficult before Generics. It also didn't have an actual package system for years. The Go team has had hard time understanding that in the past.
