Walkthrough

Bumps Go version directives in multiple go.mod.tmpl files to 1.23.0 (from variants like 1.18 and 1.23) across base, generate, and framework-specific templates, and updates the website changelog to record the correction. No other behavioral or API changes.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary of changes
Base & Generate templates `v2/pkg/templates/base/go.mod.tmpl`, `v2/pkg/templates/generate/plain/go.mod.tmpl`	Updated `go` directive from `1.18` to `1.23.0`. No other edits.
Framework templates (all flavors) `v2/pkg/templates/templates/.../go.mod.tmpl` Examples: `lit/go.mod.tmpl`, `lit-ts/go.mod.tmpl`, `plain/go.mod.tmpl`, `preact/go.mod.tmpl`, `preact-ts/go.mod.tmpl`, `react/go.mod.tmpl`, `react-ts/go.mod.tmpl`, `svelte/go.mod.tmpl`, `svelte-ts/go.mod.tmpl`, `vanilla/go.mod.tmpl`, `vanilla-ts/go.mod.tmpl`, `vue/go.mod.tmpl`, `vue-ts/go.mod.tmpl`	Normalized `go` directive variants to `1.23.0` (previously `1.23`, etc.). No changes to require/replace lines or other template content.
Changelog `website/src/pages/changelog.mdx`	Added an Unreleased/Fixed entry noting initialization templates now use the correct Go version.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~10 minutes

Potential attention areas:

v2/pkg/templates/base/go.mod.tmpl and v2/pkg/templates/generate/plain/go.mod.tmpl (major version bump from 1.18).
website/src/pages/changelog.mdx for copy/placement consistency.

Poem

Thump-thump, I hop and tweak the line,
From older burrows to 1.23.0 fine.
Templates neat, each module bright,
Changelog nods in morning light.
A tiny hop — all set, goodnight. 🥕

Learning: In Wails v2 (PR wailsapp/wails#4484), for BrowserOpenURL URL validation (v2/internal/frontend/utils/urlValidator.go), maintainers (APshenkin) prefer not to restrict schemes to an http/https allowlist because supported schemes may vary. The allowlist suggestion is declined; continue with the existing denylist approach and generic validation.

29-29: Changelog entry is well‑formatted and accurate.

The entry correctly documents the Go version template fix with proper Markdown link syntax and consistent formatting aligned with other entries in the "Fixed" section. The link is correctly formatted without extra spaces, and the attribution is clear.
