I think Go has the upper hand here.
The problem with most older languages is that they have a plethora of tools. So yeah maven and than there is gradle and some setup to access private stuff. Compatibility mode that doesn't work so needs a true 11 JDK next to 17...
That said I usually have more issues with python. C is usually also quite straightforward on UNIX.
I fucking hate the process of setting up IDEs and compilers! All the build files, cmake files, tasks, all that shit.
I undrerstand it's integral part of coding, but fuck, why does it always take so long to set up a stupid project. Just let me start coding ffs.
Sometimes I get so frustrated that I rather write a bash script or run the compiler commands in the shell instead of going through the hassle of setting all this up.
