I'm using C# mainly because of debugger integration in Visual Studio. Make decent visual debugger and devs will come.

Visual Studio code has pretty decent debugger for Go.

Is that delve? If so, it doesn't work debugging tests, which makes it, depending on your style either totally useless or just quite annoying to use.

Yes, it is a visual interface over delve.

Delve supports debugging tests.

What are you developing with C#? I see Go more for server-side stuff, and C# for Unity/Desktop development...

Why do people find the need to write about themselves in third person? https://stevefrancia.com/

I think it's just a convention that's used when writing "About The Author" sections. Not really a statement of personality.

> What is missing from the Go ecosystem? Personally, golang "IDE" experience is not as good as Java or even C++. For example, ycmd only supports subset of functions for golang. I miss ycmd-goto-references the most.

That looks like limitation of ycmd, not golang.

Most go modes for various editors use native go utilities as their backend, for example gocode/godef/golint/gorename/guru, etc.

If someone makes an alternative go implementation, they should name it baduk or weiqi.
