Feel++ Version Policy

Feel++ follows the semantic versioning rules. Each Feel++ component release is versioned major.minor.patch.

Major: Major releases occur when there are substantial changes in functionality or when new functionality breaks backwards compatibility. Releases within the same major version number will maintain API compatibility.
Minor: Minor releases add new features, improvements to existing features, and fixes that maintain backwards compatibility.
Patch: Patch releases fix bugs and maintain backwards compatibility. Only the latest minor release for a major release will receive patches. Patch releases happen as needed depending on the urgency of the fix.
Pre-release: Major and minor releases may include pre-release versions (major.minor.patch-alpha.n | -beta.n | -rc.n). Pre-release versions will be tagged as next so that the npm client doesn’t prefer a pre-release over a stable version. Once a release candidate (rc) has been thoroughly tested, the stable release will be published.
