Acme is genuinely worth trying, you can run it on Linux/Mac without a VM [1]. I'm pretty sure Russ Cox [2] and Rob Pike use it as their daily driver which is insane because it doesn't even have syntax highlighting. I used it for years when I was in school as an exercise in masochism, but I learned a lot about Unix, and the mouse-driven workflow actually grew on me.

A pure C89 implementation of Go channels, including blocking and non-blocking selects
If you find it too complicated and closely tied to Go internals, you can also check out Plan 9 from User Space's version, which is itself based on libthread from Plan 9 starting from 3rd edition, which is itself based on Alef's implementation of channels (Alef is Go's grandfather).

Mk: A Successor to Make [pdf]
I tried plan9port's mk for a moment out of curiosity. I quickly ran into an annoying usability problem: it compares file mtimes with second accuracy.
https://github.com/9fans/plan9port/blob/cc4571fec67407652b03...
With sub-second build times for individual targets, this causes mk to needlessly recompile files because the target may have the same mtime as the prerequisites.

Mk: A Successor to Make [pdf]
I own a couple books on Make and it's a great tool, but I learned how to use Mk by just reading the manpage. It's a huge improvement and simplification at the same time.
There's a solid, [stand-alone implementation of mk in golang](https://github.com/henesy/mk). No plan9 environment needed.
