Prototyping with Go
V Körbes returns to talk prototyping with Natalie, Johnny & Kris. Is Go good for prototyping? What makes a language prototypable, anyway? How does space radiation fit in to all this? Tune in and ride along to find out!

When the discussion turned to prototyping and JVM languages, the first thing I thought of was Groovy. It’s got the desired features that were discussed - Nice repl, dynamic, minimal required boilerplate… it feels like a Java-Python mashup, in a good way.

Oh right! I remember Groovy…heck I started learning it as it picked up in popularity back in the day. It never did quite take off though from what I understand.

I think python is the best for prototyping. It has a lot of libraries, easy to install, run, dockerize, you do not thinks a lot about types. While you making it - comment things, note ideas, test etc. And based of all notes you get - rewrite this on Go :) Of course you can prototype with Go. But I think it’s easier to make it in python.
