Documentation release notes
This page lists all the Strapi Docs version numbers and their corresponding updates.
Strapi Docs version numbers explained:
The Strapi Documentation (Strapi Docs) at docs.strapi.io always documents the latest version of Strapi (CMS and Cloud) products.
Since Strapi Docs version 5.0.0, the docs' version number is independent from the Strapi product version. Thus, the version numbers of strapi/documentation and strapi/strapi may differ.
Strapi Docs now follow the semantic versioning philosophy, but adapted to docs:
- Major version (6.0.0, 7.0.0…): A significant rewrite of the docs (content or framework). This may impact the user experience, redesign the site, or break old links (redirections are handled, but broken links can be reported).
- Minor version (5.1.0, 5.2.0…): New Strapi features or improvements to the docs framework (e.g., new components or tools).
- Patch version (5.1.1, 5.1.2…): Content updates, including improvement or extension of existing pages, code examples fixes, and typos.
New versions (minor or patch) are generally released weekly, on Wednesdays.
Reminder: Version numbers on this page are for the Strapi Docs package. The latest Strapi CMS version is 5.36.0.
