Release Cycle and Supported Versions

Understanding Version Numbers

Varbase follows the Drupal 9/10/11 release cycle. Therefore, a version of Varbase is named 10.0.x uses the same major version of Drupal 10.

Varbase Supported Versions

Varbase supports one major version. That is the most recent one using the most recent Drupal 9/10 major version (e.g. 9.0.x , 10.0.x, 11.0.x )

Upgrade paths will always be provided to guarantee a smooth move between supported Varbase versions.

See the below image for an illustration of supported versions and major release cycle:

If a project started with the Varbase 9.0.x branch and was then upgraded to 9.1.x to work with Drupal 10, it is better to keep the project using the Varbase 9 structure, as it will have support for Drupal 11 in the 9.2.x branch.

Recommended to start new projects with latest version of Varbase ~10.0.0
