As of February 2020, we are deprecating support for Go 1.11 and Go 1.12 and are
now targeting Go 1.13 or later. Please ensure that you are using at least Go
1.13 when developing for Dendrite - our CI will lint and run tests against this
version.
## Continuous Integration
When a Pull Request is submitted, continuous integration jobs are run
automatically to ensure the code builds and is relatively well-written. The
jobs are run on [Buildkite](https://buildkite.com/matrix-dot-org/dendrite/),
and the Buildkite pipeline configuration can be found in Matrix.org's
[pipelines repository](https://github.com/matrix-org/pipelines).

If a job fails, click the "details" button and you should be taken to the job's
logs.

### Running CI Tests Locally
To save waiting for CI to finish after every commit, it is ideal to run the
checks locally before pushing, fixing errors first. This also saves other
people time as only so many PRs can be tested at a given time.
