Go types often implement the fmt.GoStringer interface to produce a more concise representation of values in Go syntax, but conventionally this result is a single-line string and thus hard to read for larger data structures. go-spew instead produces a formatted dump of a value by using the reflect package to analyze its contents, but this often exposes the internals of data structures that make the result hard to read.
