GoLand 2026.2

GoLand 2026.2 is here, and it's all about performance — both yours and your Go code's. JetBrains' dedicated Go IDE ships July 16 with a brand-new optimization toolkit that brings profiling, escape analysis, and struct optimization into one streamlined workflow.

⚡ Performance Push — Go Optimization Tool Window

The headline feature is the new Go Optimization tool window. It combines profiling, escape analysis, and struct optimization into a single view. Run pprof on regular Go applications and watch CPU and memory usage in real time. The escape analysis highlights allocations that escape to the heap, while the struct optimization pass suggests field reorderings to reduce memory padding — a massive win for memory-constrained services.

🤖 AI Features Expanded

GoLand 2026.2 brings the full JetBrains AI suite to Go developers. The Skills manager lets you create custom AI workflows, and configurable AI completion providers mean you can choose between GitHub Copilot, JetBrains AI, or other providers. Native GitHub Copilot integration is also included, with agent skills for automating repetitive tasks.

🔧 go fix Integration

Apply official go fix recommendations directly from the editor. The IDE surfaces language migration suggestions and lets you apply them with a single click — no more switching to the terminal to run go fix ./....

🐳 Docker Compose & Terraform Improvements

Docker Compose workflows see improvements in service discovery and log management, while the addition of Terraform Testing Framework support makes GoLand 2026.2 a stronger choice for infrastructure-as-code development alongside your Go projects.

⚙️ Under the Hood

Performance improvements include faster code analysis, asynchronous file saving, automatic run configurations, and improved Git worktree support. The IDE feels snappier across the board, especially on large monorepos.

GoLand 2026.2 is available now. Update via the JetBrains Toolbox App or from within the IDE. Head to What's New for the full changelog.
