Where can I find the Appwrite changelog?

The Appwrite changelog lives at [appwrite.io/changelog](/changelog) and is also surfaced through a badge in the website navigation when there are new entries. Each entry summarizes a release, feature, or fix and links to related blog posts, docs, or videos where relevant.

How often is the Appwrite changelog updated?

The changelog is updated whenever new features, improvements, or fixes ship across Appwrite Cloud or self-hosted releases. Smaller updates and bug fixes also appear there, so checking it regularly is the quickest way to see what has changed between releases.

Why should developers read product changelogs?

Changelogs let you keep your integrations current, spot deprecations early, and learn about new features that could replace custom code in your app. For backend platforms in particular, knowing exactly what changed between versions is critical for planning upgrades and debugging unexpected behavior.

What is the difference between a changelog and release notes?

Release notes are usually tied to a specific version and focus on the changes shipping in that release. A changelog is a running log that captures changes over time, often grouped by date or feature area. Appwrite's changelog covers both shipped releases and smaller incremental updates.

How can I provide feedback on Appwrite features?

You can join the conversation on [Discord](https://appwrite.io/discord) or open issues and discussions on GitHub. Feedback from the community directly shapes which features are prioritized and how existing ones evolve.

Does Appwrite follow semantic versioning?

Appwrite follows semantic versioning (`MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH`) for its server releases. Breaking changes are reserved for major versions, new backwards-compatible features for minor versions, and fixes for patch versions, so you can reason about upgrade risk from the version number alone.
