go-playground VS fynedesk

There's https://goplay.tools/ which has many nice features (code completion and live error feedback), wonder why it's not become more popular.

Better yet, can you reproduce the problem at, say, https://goplay.tools/?

Or you can go to the Better Go Playground https://goplay.tools. It has intellisense and syntax highlighting.

https://goplay.tools/ has a bunch of great snippets to review

If someone interested to play with WASM capabilities, I've been working on custom playground that supports WebAssembly - https://goplay.tools.

Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. Apologies if my previous post looks like trying to push you into a particular direction; this wasn't my intention. Stay with your roadmap, goplay.tools is already super useful. If I need something extra I should really consider trying to contribute that – although I must admit I don't have much time either. But I'll keep it in mind.

Hello, I'm looking for contributors for my FOSS project - https://github.com/x1unix/go-playground.

We (I am one of the developers) also have https://github.com/FyshOS/fynedesk as a desktop environment.

If U like a Go Desktop try this: https://github.com/fyne-io/fynedesk

The Oberon channel has several videos of Oberon in action,

While Oberon was quite cool, people should also learn about its Xerox influence,

"Eric Bier Demonstrates Cedar"

Also dive into what happened afterwards, Oberon-2, Active Oberon, Zonnon,...

Active Oberon could be considered quite modern, also makes the distinction between safe and unsafe pointers, which improves the experience for low level coding.

One of the best things about these systems is proving what systems programming with automatic memory management were capable of.

Given Oberon-2's influence on Go, maybe improving Fyne (https://fyne.io/fynedesk/) with something like gRPC for the dynamic experience, could be a possible sucessor.

The thing is with go is it's kind of made for web applications. It's made by google for google. Taking a look at the standard library you can see the most fleshed out parts are for general system access, networking and particularly http, and crypto. People have obviously made things outside of those scopes like fynedesk, but that's where the focus of golang is.

Another angle for when a toolkit is mature could be when it’s used for a full desktop environment :). MacOS and Windows native toolkits obviously tick the box. GTK+ has Gnome, Qt powers KDE (both have Go bindings), Enlightenment is powered by EFL (no Go support yet). Fyne is being used for FyneDesk https://github.com/fyne-io/fynedesk

One other idea that I had: There are new approaches to the desktop like e.g. FyneDesk, a *nix desktop environment written in Golang (using its own GUI toolkit). It's BSD-licensed (3-clause) and I would expect the team being more than happy with anybody trying to make it available to a wider audience. Might be worth a thought.

100% agree on the theming, quick glance at the current implementation seems to indicate hardcoded values (I am assuming this is an early spec) https://github.com/fyne-io/fynedesk/blob/master/theme/theme.go

we were thinking of contributing to this project fyne-io/fynedesk: A full desktop environment for Linux/Unix using Fyne (github.com)
