Overview

General Release Information

We typically try to publish new Spartacus libraries every two weeks. Each release may contain bug fixes, improvements, and/or new features.

When new features are available for release, normally we will publish a pre-release “next” version of the libraries with the new features, in order to get feedback. When the final, new, minor version is ready, we usually publish a release candidate (RC), with the final new x.y.0 a few days or weeks later.
