OpenCode Go Support

OpenCode provides specialized support for Go projects, helping you write, refactor, and maintain Go code effectively.

Go-Specific Features

• Understanding Go project structure and conventions
• Assisting with Go modules and dependency management
• Helping with Go-specific syntax and idioms
• Supporting Go testing practices
• Assisting with Go build tools and commands

Working with Go Projects

When working on a Go project, OpenCode can help with:

1. Project Structure Analysis: Understanding your Go project layout
2. Code Generation: Creating Go files with proper structure and imports
3. Refactoring: Improving Go code while maintaining functionality
4. Testing Assistance: Writing and understanding Go tests
5. Dependency Management: Working with Go modules

Go-Specific Commands

While OpenCode doesn't have Go-specific slash commands, it understands Go context and can assist with:

• Creating and modifying Go source files
• Working with Go test files (*_test.go)
• Managing go.mod and go.sum files
• Understanding Go interfaces and structs
• Assisting with error handling patterns in Go

Best Practices

When using OpenCode with Go projects:

1. Ensure your project has a proper go.mod file
2. Follow standard Go project layout conventions
3. Use clear, descriptive prompts when asking for Go-specific assistance
4. Leverage OpenCode's understanding of Go idioms and patterns
