# Wide

## Intro

A <b>W</b>eb <b>IDE</b> IDE for Team using Golang.

## Motivation
* **Team** IDE:
  * Safe and reliable: the project source code stored on the server in real time, the developer's machine crashes without losing any source code 
  * Unified environment: server unified development environment configuration, the developer machine without any additional configuration 
  * Out of the box: 5 minutes to setup a server then open browser to develop, debug
  * Version Control: each developer has its own source code repository, easy sync with the trunk 
* **Web based** IDE:
  * Developer needs a browser only
  * Cross-platform, even on mobile devices
  * For the geeks
* A try for commercial-open source: versions customized for enterprises, close to their development work flows respectively
* Currently more popular Go IDE has some defects or regrets: 
  * Text editor (vim/emacs/sublime/Atom, etc.): For the Go newbie is too complex 
  * Plug-in (goclipse, etc.): the need for the original IDE support, not professional
  * LiteIDE: no modern user interface :p
  * No team development experience 
* There are a few of GO IDEs, and no one developed by Go itself, this is a nice try

## Features
* Code Highlight, Folding: Go/HTML/JavaScript/Markdown etc.
* Autocomplete: Go/HTML etc.
* Format: Go/HTML/JSON etc.
* Run & Debug: run/debug multiple processes at the same time
* Multiplayer: a real team development experience
* Navigation, Jump to declaration, Find usages, File search etc.
* Shell: run command on the server
* Git integration: git command on the web
* Web development: Frontend devlopment (HTML/JS/CSS) all in one
* Go tool: go get/install/fmt etc.
