Wow, I did not expect that. I'm currently using VS Code for Go and I'm pretty happy with it. Definitively gonna try this out because I'm pretty much using JetBrains for everything else and never got disappointed by them yet.

IntelliJ IDEA has a Go plugin that works very well. I've switched from Sublime -> VSCode -> IntelliJ for my Go development and I haven't looked back.

I started using Intellij's plugin for Go development but the debugger just didn't work (well... it worked once per OS boot)

VSCode's debugger worked well in the early stages of Go which why my team and I switched to it and sticked with it. VSCode is pretty awesome and, we believe, better than Intellij's unofficial plugin.

I'm really excited by Gogland though

Not for long, if this catches on. There was a free C plugin, now you have to pay for CLion.

To be fair, CLion is much more full featured than the C plugin was.

VS Code is awesome for Go. If you are doing Go and not using it, you should!

> If you are doing Go and not using it, you should!

That's a very assertive statement to make about something that's completely preferential.

For what it's worth, I tried VSC but really didn't like it. Partly because the whole Electron thing made it run like crap on modest hardware with lots of other stuff running. And partly because I didn't much like the defaults (font sizes, layout, etc). The latter could all be "fixed" to my preferences but IntelliJ and Sublime Text - both with their respective Go plugins - were already better aligned to my workflow so I saw little point wasting time on yet another "text editor with knobs on".

I also like LiteIDE.

Me too. Very lightweight and fast. Don't know why it doesn't get more love?

While I liked it, it was quite buggy for debugging. I hope Gogland is better.

They specifically mention improving the debugging experience: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/go/1.0/faq.html#d3e52
