Any thoughts how to enforce consistent dev environment among the team mates?

Don't? I'm currently working on a Golang web app with a small team and we're lucky enough to be each working on separate modules that fulfill a predefined specification we drafted prior to starting a line of code. As long as each module fulfills the requirements we drafted, we don't care about each others dev environments, because go creates a binary.

Also: `go fmt` is incredible (and built in to literally every Golang environment). We used to work primarily in Node.js but since making the switch last year to Golang we've noticed an increase in code-review productivity. Everyone's code looks the same so we don't have to spend time worrying about dev environments.
