The recently released VUE-Next framework has corresponding version numbers for each stage. I did not have a clear understanding of each version number before, so I made a summary after consulting the information for quick reference in the future.

alpha

Alpha is the internal beta version, because the function is not perfect, generally not released to the outside, there will be a lot of bugs, unless you are a tester, otherwise not recommended to use. Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet, which means the most rudimentary version. Alpha is alpha, beta is beta, and alpha is a beta that precedes beta.

Therefore, it is the first phase in the entire software release cycle.



beta

This is a big improvement over alpha and eliminates serious bugs, but there are still bugs that need to be eliminated through multiple tests. Bate Releases Are the first publicly available versions of software to collect user feedback as a reference for further revisions. New features and features are added all the time.

Rc (Release candidate)

“Candidate” is used to describe software as a release candidate. The biggest difference from the beta is that new features are added all the time, but in the RC release, there are almost no new features, and the focus is on debugging. The RC release is the closest version to the final release to the user, the final release after known bug fixes, and the final beta before the final release.

General Availability (GA)

For example: Vue-Next GA. This is the first stable release of Vue-Next. Ga means general Availability. Since vuE-Next has not reached this version, you can keep following vue-next if you send the version number like this.

release

This version means “final release”. After a series of beta versions of the previous version, there is a final release, which is the final release for users to use. This version is sometimes called the Standard edition. In general, release does not appear on the cover of software as a word, but instead as a symbol (R).

conclusion

Through the understanding of the above version number, we can also have a certain understanding of the development progress of vuE-Next surrounding ecological library according to the version number.
