I agree! Comes with the territory of a compiled language I suppose?

I haven't given this much thought (I also just started with golang last year) but I'm assuming the only real path here is to provide extension SDKs in Lua or other languages whose interpreters have been implemented in go.

I think that's what grafana's k6 [1] does with a JS interpreter

Why isn’t IPC good enough?

curious your thoughts on my approach: https://docs.wingman.actor/extend/plugin-quickstart/
