But go tooling is bad. Like, really really bad.
Sure it's good compared to like... C++. Is go actually competing with C++? From where I'm standing, no.
But compared to what you might actually use Go for... The tooling is bad. PHP has better tooling, dotnet has better tooling, Java has better tooling.
Go tooling is fine.
Go tooling is among the best out there. You ever see npm?
Go was a response, in part, to C++, if I recall how it was described when it was introduced. That doesn't seem to be how it ended it out. Maybe it was that "systems programming language" means something different for different people.
