The only thing holding me back is the lack of an integrated terminal. This is absolutely essential to my *nix workflow and I can't for the life of me imagine a reason to not include it. Otherwise, I love what I'm seeing here.

Well, most editors and even IDEs don't offer one.

The reason being that terminal semantics are hell difficult to implement, and doubly so in a web-based stack?

I'm using IntelliJ with the golang plugin at the moment and am spoiled by the integrated terminal. A quick Google search seems to indicate that the atom editor has a terminal plugin so maybe that would be a good basis for a port. VS Code feels much snappier than IntelliJ so I look forward to the day with an integrated terminal is available.
