> Go's documentation, tutorials, videos, support, community - what forms the ecosystem, basically - is really the reason why I keep coming back to it.

One way to put it is that this highlights Go from a user's perspective.

The very same thing is true from the compiler developer's perspective.

I've found that the process of installing dependencies, pulling source, navigating source, building, testing, contributing patches, etc is important for success--as well as the user experience.

I've had bug-fix patches accepted into Clang, GHC, and Rust. I found Rust to be a bit pricklier than Clang and GHC. I'd like to make time to get a similar experience with Go--I suspect it would be good.
