Go 1.27 is out and generic methods have landed – a method can now declare its own type parameters.
Also in this release: the stdlib `uuid` and `encoding/json/v2` packages, plus a new `goroutineleak` profile.
See how GoLand supports the new Go 1.27 features from day one 👇 blog.jetbrains.com/go/2026/0…

“Almost right” is not a code quality standard.
GoLand helps you stay confident in the code you ship.
Let’s talk about it! 🎥👇
An agent writes the code now. Do you still need an IDE?
You do if you want to understand and verify what the agent did.
🎥 In our new video, we talk about the role of an IDE now that humans aren't the only ones working on the code. piped.video/AHFGMkzrfwM

Go devs' top three jobs are providing APIs (69%), integrating with APIs (63%), and building application logic (51%).
Python devs lead on AI and ML – 36% to 20% – and they tell us that even when they migrate to Go, they still keep these tasks in Python.

ALT Horizontal bar chart from JetBrains’ Developer Ecosystem 2026 survey comparing code functionality reported by Go developers (purple; 1,836 respondents) and Python developers (orange; 11,298 respondents). Eight of 20 categories are shown. Percentages for Go versus Python: providing APIs/services, 69% vs 41%; integrating APIs/services, 63% vs 47%; application logic/workflows, 51% vs 37%; user interface, 47% vs 41%; integration with AI, 46% vs 44%; data processing/analytics, 30% vs 38%; AI and machine learning, 20% vs 36%; libraries/frameworks, 35% vs 26%. Go leads in six categories; Python leads in data processing/analytics and AI and machine learning.

Better yet, try it yourself. The fastest way to get your hands on Air:
1. Download GoLand 26.3 EAP: jb.gg/yd7cqf
2. Look for the Air icon or press ⌘2 (Ctrl+2).
Holy moly, we’ve seen a lot of interest in JetBrains Air since the announcement!
-Air in IDEs: for developers
-Air Teams: for team leads & engineering managers
-Air Governance: for CTOs & engineering directors
Here’s how to try these things:

With roughly 10% of Python devs planning to pick up Go next year, we decided to compare the two languages.
We gathered 12,000+ survey responses on what these developers use, ship, and earn, plus seven interviews with engineers who already migrated – it’s the full lowdown on Python vs. Go 👇 jb.gg/ix89jo

Why is good editor-agnostic refactoring so hard to achieve and why does GoLand set the gold standard?
Alan Donovan discusses what the Go team is doing to bring better refactoring experience to Go users via `gopls`.

99.2% of Gophers have tried at least one AI coding tool. This makes Go developers the most universal AI adopters in our Developer Ecosystem 2026 survey.
With Junie Lite, using AI in your development workflow is easier than ever. Access it for free in both GoLand and your terminal via JetBrains Air.

Go 1.27 expands experimental SIMD support with the archsimd package, giving developers zero-cost, type-safe access to low-level hardware intrinsics on amd64, arm64, and wasm.
Junyang Shao and David Chase explain the API design, how compiler optimizations replace architecture quirks, and share best practices for bounds checks and register allocation to get the most out of it.

The answer is: `<nil>`
`errors.Join()` produces a `[]error`.
But `errors.Unwrap()` returns a single error, so it gives up.
The way in is a type assertion on the method set:
`err.(interface{ Unwrap() []error })`
Go quiz: `ReadFiles()` fails on all three paths and joins the errors with `errors.Join()`.
What does the second line print?

JetBrains Air is coming to GoLand. Try it in the EAP now.
We've reimagined JetBrains IDEs to become the ultimate agentic workbench.
Air is an open hub for agents inside your IDE:
-Any agents to run (Claude, Codex & many more)
-Agents are more efficient with IDE intelligence
-Free Junie Lite agent bundled
-Cloud runs via Air Teams

Tired of switching between your editor and observability tools just to check your app performance while it’s running?
GoLand shows you live performance charts for CPU and memory usage in real time directly in the IDE. You’ll find the charts in the “Go Optimization” tool window.
