| # Go Nightly for VS Code |
| |
| > ### **ATTENTION** |
| >**Go Nightly for VS Code** is the insider version of |
| [VS Code Go extension](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-go) |
| for early feedback and testing. This extension works best with |
| [VS Code Insiders](https://code.visualstudio.com/insiders). |
| Go Nightly contains previews of new features and bug fixes that are still |
| under review or testing, so can be unstable. If you are looking for the stable version, |
| please use [the stable version](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode.go) instead. |
| > |
| > **NOTE:** |
| If you have both stable (aka "Go") and nightly version (aka "Go Nightly") installed, |
| you MUST DISABLE one of them. Docs on how to disable an extension can be found |
| [here](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/extension-gallery#_disable-an-extension). |
