Automatic Go version updates

Render's native Go environment now automatically updates to the latest stable Go 1.x version, usually within 24 hours of a new release. After an update, your service starts using the new version with its next deploy.

Previously, we handled Go version updates manually, which meant delays between a new Go release and availability on Render. This is now fully automated.

If you need to pin to a specific Go version, you can deploy using a Docker image. Learn more about supported languages and versions in the docs.
