Neovim configuration for Golang Development (2023)
Neovim and vim are good alternatives in cases you don’t want to use a full blown IDE like Goland or Visual Studio Code, specially in cases where you program in multiple languages and learning multiple IDEs could be too much to learn. Here’s the configuration I have when working on Go/Golang projects using Neovim, this includes options for compiling programs, running tests, code completion, LSP integration with gopls with the plugins listed below.
