The Release Process

API Platform follows the Semantic Versioning strategy.

Only 3 versions are maintained at the same time:

• stable (currently the 2.6 branch): regular bug fixes are integrated in this version
• old-stable (currently 2.5 branch): security fixes are integrated in this version, regular bug fixes are not backported in it
• development (main branch): new features target this branch

Older versions (1.x, 2.0…) are not maintained. If you still use them, you must upgrade as soon as possible.

The old-stable branch is merged in the stable branch on a regular basis to propagate security fixes. The stable branch is merged in the development branch on a regular basis to propagate security and regular bug fixes.

New versions of API Platform are released when they are ready, on the behalf of the API Platform Core Team.
