Other than angular, what's an example of a developer ecosystem Google created on purpose very successfully relative to its peers.

I recall
@golang was originally envisioned as a systems level language, like C. Relative to that aspiration I'd say it's doing great. -
can confirm this from original announcement: "Go is a great language for systems programming and writing servers"https://opensource.googleblog.com/2009/11/hey-ho-lets-go.html …
-
that's way more general than the niche it landed in. Also even go adherents stopped calling it a "systems programming language"
-
not the writing servers part though.
-
I don't think Go is a language for writing services. It's a language for orchestrating containers and writing microservices.
-
@caddyserver is pretty awesome, etcd, Kubernetes, Docker Swarm are servers, so is@cockroachdb etc. -
We'll see. I think people are overly bullish on go, but I'll eat crow in a few years if it's growing a lot into new areas.
-
programing languages that take over the world are extremely rare so you probably won't have to eat crow :)

Well if Golang reaches the popularity of Perl and Bash in their prime that's a pretty good accomplishment.
