Conception-go

This is a work in progress Go implementation of Conception.

Conception is an experimental project. It's a platform for researching software development tools and techniques. It is driven by a set of guiding principles. Conception-go targets Go development.

My "short term" goal is to implement some of the ideas shown off in Bret Victor's Learnable Programming article. Another goal is to try to beat my current Sublime Text + GoSublime development environment setup (which sets a really high bar).

Watch this repo to follow the project's development.
