Because its fast to get it up and running, and has batteries included.

Other stacks usually require tons of config, infrastructure set up. Scripting etc.

.net I can literally click deploy to azure and I'm done.

Serious question: have you actually developed with OS stacks? They're incredibly easy to get up and running with.

With Python/Node/Ruby/JavaScript, I can literally click "git push to Heroku" and I'm done.

Python/Node/Ruby/JavaScript

Yeah, but those are scripty dynamic languages that many developers don't like.

OK, what about:

$ goapp deploy

Go is a statically compiled language
