I first used $GOPATH and “go get”. Was amazed at how simple and easy it was and it “just worked”. Then you start to run into issues... so I started using Glide. Which worked pretty darn well. Then I switched to Dep because “it was the future” and it didn’t cause me to break out in hives. Now vgo... but Dep works for me so at the moment I don’t plan to switch until vgo is good and baked. Given Boyer’s concerns I hope he maintains Dep for a while as vgo is polished. Too bad this was not part of the vision at the start. Not sure where JS would be without NPM, etc.



> Not sure where JS would be without NPM

Where it was before NPM, i.e. where Go is today. No real versioning or discovery (granted Go has qualified URLs for discovery).
