> makes it the best Go IDE out there I will respectfully disagree and say that gogland (while still in a pre-release state) is much much better.
Gogland is great, but so far I haven't seen a feature that makes is strictly better, but I agree that it is a great alternative. There is also the fact that VSCode is open-source.
IntelliJ is open-source as well and the Go plugin for it has been open-source for a long while as well :)
