Pull request overview
This PR updates workspace VS Code settings to ensure Go files use the Go extension as their default formatter instead of inheriting a non-working default. It aligns Go formatting behavior with the existing language-specific configuration already in place for Python.
Changes:
- Add a language-scoped VS Code setting for Go (
[go]) in.vscode/settings.json. - Set
"editor.defaultFormatter"for Go to"golang.go"so Go files are formatted by the Go extension.
