Hello! My question is basically what the title says. I’m searching for an IDE/text editor for Go development and am wondering if anybody knows an alternative to these. Here is the list of software I tried:
-
I’ve tried NeoVim but I really don’t want to waste time doing text-based configuration and messing with extensions just to get some basic features working.
-
I tried VSCodium but it doesn’t exist in my system software repositories (I’m currently on Chimera Linux), and the flatpak version can’t run any system commands.
-
GoLand and Sublime Text are proprietary & paid.
It seems the market for IDEs is pretty small, so I wouldn’t really be surprised if nothing existed that fit these criteria, but thanks for any answers in advance!
Edit: I’ve settled with Lite-XL which seems to be a great editor. Thanks for all of your great recommendations!
Atom?
Pulsar is the current maintained fork of that project, we forked it before it got shut down and are actively developing it,
Is that still being recommended? Last I heard it was eol, no longer getting feature changes or improvements and was basically superceded by vscode.
Yes and no. The original project is dead but we forked it and continue to maintain and improve it as Pulsar
I’m out of the loop. Thanks for filling me in.
