#2Why does the title refer to this as a Go editor when the linked page is talking about having support for 23 different languages?

#3The lack of integrated terminal or method of running a go program makes me question what use this is to someone. Until either of those is implemented, this is a no-go for me. Not even mentioning that it costs money to use without adding any value over free editors.

It seems it was originally a Go-only editor when it came out five years ago (looking through their blog posts). Ruby was only added earlier this year, and now this supports more languages. So yes, weird to describe it as a Go Editor still, but it would have been accurate before May.

what other features do you need in a text editor other than typing text and getting code completion?

#8Looks like the application requires macOS v12, which is only a year old. What features does it require that means it can't be backwards-compatible? Is it a SwiftUI thing?

#9Seemed interesting based on the amount of languages the editor supports on paper, but a quick trial showed that at least C# support is very, very barebones, even theoretical, as I couldn't get any kind of autocomplete to work, for example. After few minutes of usage Im unsure of what it provides aside from some syntax coloring. Maybe I did something wrong?
