React Data Grid Versioning policy
Handsontable follows the principles of Semantic Versioning (opens new window) (SemVer).
In this article
Overview
We use the version format of X.Y.Z (Major.Minor.Patch), incrementing them when a certain type of change occurs to the code.
The following table outlines which number would change when a Major, Minor, or Patch release occurs:
| Type | Version number | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Major | X (X.y.z) | Any backward-incompatible changes are introduced to the public API. |
| Minor | Y (x.Y.z) | New backward-compatible functionality is introduced to the public API, or if any public API functionality is marked as deprecated. |
| Patch | Z (x.y.Z) | Backward-compatible bug fixes are introduced. We define a bug fix as an internal change that fixes an incorrect behavior of Handsontable. |
Versioning of framework variants
Up to Handsontable 8.3.2, the JavaScript variant and the React variant of Handsontable were versioned separately:
Starting with version 8.4.0 (released in May 2021), both the JavaScript variant and the React variant of Handsontable have the same version number.
