I've not tried LiteIDE since it first came out. I did not enjoy the experience at the time. The toolchain in VSCode is really nice. You can run tests from your cursor, the file, or the package. There is a built in terminal if you want it. Jump and peek definition for stdlib and imported packages. GoImports works, but so does a cmd+p prompt where you can ">Go: Add Import" and specifically add the import you want so autocomplete just starts working for it. The linting catches me all the time when I type fmt.Println instead of fmt.Printf or have the wrong format types in the string. You have to mouse over something to get its method signature or type, but I've gotten used to it. I even have found myself using its git diff viewer. It also has delve debugger integration, but I've not had the chance to use it yet.

I also use VSCode for bash, python, perl, HTML, markdown, and probably a few others that I'm forgetting. However, I primarily use it for Go.
