## What it is
An improved web-based Go Playground with syntax highlighting, code autocompletion, VIM mode, and WebAssembly support. It can be self-hosted via Docker or used at goplay.tools.

## Use cases
- run Go snippets online with autocomplete
- self-host a Go playground
- share Go code snippets with syntax highlighting
- try Go code without installing Go
- learn Go with built-in tutorials and examples
- run Go code in the browser via WebAssembly

## When to choose
- you want a richer alternative to play.golang.org with IDE-like features
- you need a self-hosted Go playground for a team or behind a firewall
- you want autocomplete and syntax highlighting when sharing Go snippets

## When to avoid
- you need a full local IDE or large project builds
- you need to run code with network access or heavy dependencies beyond what the playground supports
