Programming language Go: Microsoft hands VS Code Go extension to Googles Go team

General News

Summary

But now the Go VS Code extension is moving to Golang, the open-source project that maintains the Go programming language. Google created Go in the early 2000s for building big distributed computing systems and released it to the public just over a decade ago. "Both the Go and Visual Studio Code teams recognize the importance of Visual Studio Code to the Go community and believe strongly in an open tooling ecosystem for Go developers. That would represent around half the worlds roughly 24 million developers, according to Statistas estimates. The Go team also began a new initiative to improve the tools powering all Go editor extensions, with a focus on supporting the Language Server Protocol with gopls and the Debug Adapter Protocol with Delve.
