> Using your logic, any IDE with a settings dialog is crap…

You are reading things into my comment that aren't there. Maybe you should reread it. Especially the part where I talk about the separation of project specific configs and general IDE configs. Or how your CI should be able to pick these things up.

> It sounds more so like you hate VSCode

What else are you seeing down there in the tea leaves? Did I say anything about VSCode?

Perhaps you misread mine. What common structure exists to define what commands, sub commands, and tests exist in a project? If I were to write a CLI app, can any of the jetbrains or other IDEs automatically detect what the sub commands are within my CLI? What structure would it read this from?

Golang certainly has no such file, so you’d have to read from the main package and understand every CLI framework out there to parse out the sub commands to build your launch configuration. Sounds real easy right?

Now if we’re talking about nodejs, where the package.json can hold your run configurations within the script section, then ok. But we’re talking about golang.
