What is the recommended way to go about debugging a Go program? Is there something better than GDB if I want to look at the call stack, have breakpoints, look at the state of variables etc.

Using GDB seems akin to working with assembly

There're a few Go IDEs that integrate GDB into the IDE.

I'm the author of one of them (Zeus) and while the results are not as slick as the Visual Studio debugger it's a better than straight out GDB.
