**Code formatting:**
the default key bindings for format current buffer is `SPC b f` , and this key bindings is defined in [format layer ](<> ). you can also use `g=` to indent current buffer.
To make neoformat support go files, you should have [go-fmt ](http://golang.org/cmd/gofmt/ ) command available, or
install [goimports ](https://godoc.org/golang.org/x/tools/cmd/goimports ). `go-fmt` is delivered by golang's default installation, so make sure you have correctly setup your go environment.
