Product lifecycle

This is for:

Developer

The Headless framework is an evolving product which is continuously delivering new features and improvements. This high velocity of innovation, combined with ever-changing dependencies (such as Node.js updates), means that certain legacy frameworks, methods, or features must be deprecated.

This article describes the official product lifecycle for each version of the Headless framework and its components. Contractually, Coveo performs needed bug fixes for at least 18 months following the release of a major version. We end support no earlier than 3 years after the initial release. For more details, visit Coveo’s version support lifecycle policy.

Package versions

The latest version of the Headless framework can be downloaded from npm. Links to older versions are also available, but support is limited as stated in the following table and as provided under the Coveo Support and Service-Level Policies.

Support for newer versions of these frameworks may be added in either major or minor updates. Support for older versions may be removed in major updates. The wrappers may come with limitations compared to the version of Headless that uses native components.
