Article Summary

Overview

LightBox APIs use semantic versioning. Semantic versioning structures each version identifier into three parts. From left to right, those parts are MAJOR, MINOR, and PATCH notation.

MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH or v1.0.0

Semantic Versioning
  • PATCH  is incremented for bug fixes.
  • MINOR  is incremented for backward-compatible changes of the API.
  • MAJOR  is incremented for breaking changes.

Each API will have its own version as each API is updated separately and at different times. 

LightBox works to keep MAJOR updates to a minimum.
