# Turbo Go — documentation

Turbo Go is a Turbo C-style editor for Go: a full-screen terminal IDE with menus, movable windows, syntax colouring for nine languages, themes, completion from `gopls`, shell windows, per-project settings, a project tree, snippets, and the go toolchain a menu away.

This documentation follows the [Diátaxis](https://diataxis.fr) method. Four kinds of page, four different needs — go to the one that matches what you want right now.
