Online IDE for Golang: Go Playground


Golang has an online IDE here: Go Playground. Here we can experiment sample programs and share code snippets with others. As per the discussion in the google groups here, the shared urls seem to be retained forever - at least for now.

The online IDE doesn't autofill methods, imports etc like IDEs like IntelliJ, Eclipse do. That would have been even nicer.

More details about this playground:

Also, "About" page on the online IDE page has a bit more details such as limitations etc.


TBD:
  • How do we run a go program in the online IDE with input arguments?

I'm not sure that I'd call it an IDE (which implies something more fully fledged), but it's awesome for experimenting and running code quickly.
