<table> <thead> <tr> <th>Version</th> <th>Active support</th> <th>Security updates only</th> <th>EOL (End of support)</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>8.3</td> <td>until Nov 23, 2025</td> <td>until Nov 23, 2026</td> <td>-</td> </tr> <tr> <td>8.2</td> <td>until Dec 8, 2024</td> <td>until Dec 8, 2025</td> <td>-</td> </tr> <tr> <td>8.1</td> <td>ended</td> <td>until Nov 25, 2024</td> <td>-</td> </tr> <tr> <td>8.0</td> <td>ended</td> <td>ended</td> <td>Nov 26, 2023</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
It is recommended to use actively supported versions (8.3 or 8.2) to receive new features, fixes, and maximum security. Version 8.1 is suitable for projects that are not yet ready to upgrade to newer versions but require an update to a supported version before the end of its lifecycle. Versions 8.0 and older are considered outdated and should not be used in production.
