Pros and Cons (IMHO) - Part 1

December 29, 2018

Pros

There is only one right way to do things, enforced by gofmt.

It is very much a toolchain and a platform as well as a language.

Cons

IDE support is really nascent - time to learn EMACS (finally).

Installation feels really complicated (coming from a Java background) and Ben Boyter agrees with me.
