Supported environments
The versions listed on this page are the minimum version required if appended with a +.
Pay attention to where the + falls, as most of our dependencies follow semantic versioning (semver), where x.y.z correspond to MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH. Higher or more recent versions will be compatible with Camunda, with respect to semver.
For example, 1.2+ means support for the minor version 2, and any higher minors (1.3, 1.4, etc.) and patches (1.2.1, 1.2.2, etc.), but not majors, like 2.x.
