It there a decent alternative for Golang on the Visual Studio Code marketplace?
On another point I spent 2 hours setting up a Ruby interpretter because no matter what I did Intellij would not recognise my RVM ruby, I think compiling without yjit and setting up a specific gemset for the project plus a few Restart IDE and Invalidate caches later did it, but not sure.
For tailwind specifically the extension is lacking compared to VSCode, I do not have color squares for my color classes and the classes are not recognized in more difficult filetypes (i.e. erb templates). Many other extensions seem much less loved than on VSCode, i.e. continue.dev, you can read their reviews and quickly get a sense that it's much more niche ecosystem.
I love the editor experience overall and especially for Go projects, but can't switch fully yet.
You may need to add interpreters first then there's a modules page in project settings you can select path and tool
Odd, what extensions are you using? I use only go.dev extension and intellisense has been working great for golang dev for years.
Include the most popular vim plugins as well. Easy motion and Nerdtree. Doesn't support language specific plugins, but core jetbrains products covers that
However, this makes me wonder how much of a surface attack this is.
That’s absolutely false. Did you refuse to install gopls or something?
Even on emacs, using gopls, `Meta+.` (go to definition) works.
I use some VS Code (when I need to do web stuff besides Go), some emacs, and both use gopls so support is pretty much equivalent in terms of functionality.
