Extension summary

Goto GoDoc allows you to show the documentation of a currently opened repository of a Go package.

Most Go packages contain documentation. If a package provides a public source code repository, e.g. on GitHub, BitBucket, Launchpad, Google Code, or even self-hosted, the documentation contained within the package (including subpackages) can be viewed online on pkg.go.dev. If you're on the website of a Go package's source code repository, then you can open this documentation with a single click. If you attempt to open Go package documentation for a website that doesn't host one, you will be redirected to the search function on pkg.go.dev.

User reviews

Thanks for taking the time to make this extension. We need more Gohper tools like this.

This is just great - I use it all the time. There's only one minor gripe that I have (not enough for it to lose a star), which is that the new tab does not appear next to the current tab, but at the far right, which means I can lose context.
