Different components of the Nextmv Platform are released regularly and independently. We try our best to version our software thoughtfully and only break APIs and behaviors when we have a good reason to.

- Minor releases (v1.^.0) introduce new features and might be breaking.
- Patch releases (v1.0.^) fix bugs.
