Version Names
Last modified by Vincent Massol on 2025/06/11 10:15
- LTS Release (a.k.a Cycle LTS): This is the most stable version and is what we recommend to use in production.
- Intermediate LTS Release: The difference between the current Cycle Intermediate LTS and the previous Cycle LTS is that the Intermediate LTS allows users in production to use the newest features of XWiki. It’s super stable but the newest features will have less time to mature than what you’d find if you waited for the current Cycle LTS, at the end of the year.
- If some of the new features present in the Intermediate LTS are important for you, we recommend that you upgrade to it.
- If you’re starting with a new installation of XWiki (i.e. you’re not upgrading), we also recommend that you start with it, as it contains the latest and best features.
- If upgrading XWiki is hard for you (e.g. lots of customizations) and the new features are not of a particular interest, then we recommend that you stay on your current LTS and wait till the next LTS (at end of year).
- Stable Release: This is the version recommended if you wish to try out the latest features from the current Cycle. It's possible to use those in production .
- Unstable Release: This is the version to use if you want to test the really latest feature and provide feedback to the XWiki development team and help us stabilize the version. We don't recommend that you use these in production.
