Release cadence, Long-term support and End-of-life 

We want you to feel confident and safe when you use Umbraco CMS in Cloud and elsewhere. Part of this is making sure that we keep improving the software to ensure that bugs and issues are fixed in a timely manner and that the software stays up-to-date with helpful new features and functionality. To ensure this, we have a clear structure in regard to the release cadence as well as LTS & EOL for our products.

How we handle contributions 

Loved by developers, used by thousands around the world!

One of the biggest benefits of using Umbraco is that we have the friendliest Open Source community on this planet. A community that's incredibly pro-active, extremely talented and helpful.
