Like gosublime?
- chc 11y agoYes, Gosublime is a good example of how tooling can be helpful, though from what I can tell it is somewhat less helpful than what you'd expect in a decent IDE (e.g. no refactoring support, the interface is mainly dropdowns, weak support for finding definitions and usages).
- NateDad 11y agoReally, all I need is gofmt on save, and even that is mostly because I've gotten so used to it that I drop ugly unformatted dreck into my editor and let gofmt clean it up. I worked full time for year without go to definition, mostly because full text search is almost as good most of the time, due to how regular formatted go code is. I don't really use anything else, mostly because I don't need anything else and I have better things to do than install editor plugins.
- serge2k 11y agoI really don't get the amount of love for gofmt. It's a formatter. wow! amazing! That's never been done before.
- NateDad 11y agoYes, but it had the One True Format, which is the only way it can possibly work. I've used a formatter at other jobs in other languages, and you end up having your formatter fighting with everyone else's, unless they're configured exactly the same, which no one can ever agree on.
