In a significant development, SonarLint, a free and open-source IDE plugin, has announced its support for Go analysis in both GoLand and VS Code. The decision is based on the popularity of the Go language, with 20% of developers having used it in the past year according to the JetBrains 2022 survey. Go's speed, simplicity, and scalability have contributed to its growing popularity among web developers and DevOps professionals. With SonarLint's support, developers can catch coding issues in their IDE while creating fresh code, ensuring clean and maintainable Go projects. The plugin aims to be a helpful tool, not an intrusive one, offering contextual feedback and a clear path to issue resolution. This release marks the first step in expanding SonarLint's capabilities, with plans for additional rules in 2023.
