VSCode extensions have golang.go, but haven't ms-vscode.go

Question

I've installed the vscode to dev go app.

When I search extensions, I cannot find a go extension by ms.

But I found there is a golang version.

Is go extension made by ms is replaced by a version made by golang?

Answer 1

Microsoft just transferred the support/ownership of vscode-go to Google's Go team. If you search for golang in extensions you'll the "Go" extension by "Go Team at Google" - that's the same old extension as before.
