Understanding SemVer 2.0.0
Major
Increment for incompatible API changes (breaks existing integrations).
Minor
Increment for functionality added in a backward compatible manner.
Patch
Increment for backward compatible bug fixes and internal improvements.
Versions can also include **Pre-release** identifiers (e.g., `1.0.0-alpha`) and **Build Metadata** (e.g., `1.0.0+20130313144700`). Pre-release versions have lower precedence than the associated normal version.
SemVer Calculator FAQs
Semantic Versioning is a formal convention for determining how version numbers are assigned and incremented. It uses a three-part version number: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Each increment signals a specific type of change in the software.
Enter your current version (e.g., 1.2.3) and use the action buttons to increment the Major, Minor, or Patch component according to your changes. The tool handles carry-over and pre-release identifiers automatically.
You should increment the MAJOR version when you make incompatible API changes that break backward compatibility.
