An awesome idea! http://img691.imageshack.us/img691/1600/hahz.png That's a WIP port of Conception in Go. It's an experimental code editor/live development environment tool. What you see is an experiment at creating a Sublime Text/Atom-like fixed UI, with the list of Go packages in a tree view on the left, code in the middle, and various live widgets on the right. For instance, you can see a live git diff, the type of variable under your cursor, and various other debug things related to the parsed AST.
