The VS Code Go extension has improved a lot over the years. It now auto-installs the delve debugger, and the gopls language server. I did not have to do any additional configuration.

Do you mind filing an issue in github.com/golang/vscode-go/issues? gopls team really wants to address the issue, but they need to understand the root cause. Thanks!

If the default configuration that uses the language server doesn't work for you, please follow https://github.com/golang/vscode-go/blob/master/docs/troubleshooting.md and file an issue.

Visual Studio Code And Golang Randomly Deleting
1 project | reddit.com/r/golang | 17 Feb 2021

If it's about deleting unused stuff, that's working as intended. Otherwise - I saw a couple of users reporting issues with CRLF. Make sure you are using the latest gopls (0.6.4, you can check with `gopls -v version` command). If switching to LF doesn't address the issue, please collect the gopls trace https://github.com/golang/vscode-go/blob/master/docs/troubleshooting.md#collect-gopls-information and file an issue.

You can get the official VSCode Go extension by searching for “go” in the extensions menu, or from this site. I am especially looking forward to utilising the IntelliSense code completion suggestions and the integrated linter.

In that case, I'm guessing the Go and Rust language servers are unable to compute the documentation while there are compilation errors in the file. If you want this to be fixed, you should investigate some more, and then report the issue to golang/vscode-go and/or rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer. You'll need to provide the extension developers with info about how to reproduce the issue, and whether it's related to the snippets or just the resulting errors. For example, if you try calling a function that doesn't exist (to get a compilation error), does that also prevent you from getting doc information on hover?
