Hi, and thank you for Burrow.
One-line docs fix: the README's Getting Started section says the lowest supported Go is 1.11 (recommending 1.12), but the project actually requires far newer:
go.mod:go 1.24.0go-version: [1.25.x]Dockerfile:FROM golang:1.25.1-alpineSomeone following the README with Go 1.12 would fail at
go build. This PR updates the sentence to matchgo.mod(1.24 minimum, CI on 1.25).For transparency: I used AI assistance to spot and draft this; I verified go.mod, the CI matrix, and the Dockerfile myself.
