Semantic versioning policy
We follow semantic versioning. However, due to the nature of stylelint as a code quality tool, we've defined the following policy for stylelint:
-
patch release (intended to not break your lint build)
- a bug fix in a rule that results in stylelint reporting fewer errors
- a bug fix to the CLI or core (including formatters)
- improvements to documentation.
- non-user-facing changes such as refactoring code or modifying tests
- re-releasing after a failed release (i.e., publishing a release that doesn't work for anyone)
-
minor release (might break your lint build)
- a bug fix in a rule that results in stylelint reporting more errors
- a new rule is created
- a new option to an existing rule that does not result in stylelint reporting more errors by default
- an existing rule is deprecated
- a new CLI capability is created
- a new public API capability is created
- a new formatter is created
-
major release (likely to break your lint build)
- a change in the documented behaviour of an existing rule results in stylelint reporting more errors by default
- an existing rule is removed
- an existing formatter is removed
- part of the CLI is removed or changed in an incompatible way
- part of the public API is removed or changed in an incompatible way
