The R&D department at Tygron is responsible for developing new technologies for the Tygron Platform. The long-term planning outlined below presents the introduction of new features, which we refer to as the Release Roadmap. Your feedback is essential in shaping this roadmap. At present, we are focused on developing new features in line with this roadmap, along with implementing minor updates and bug fixes.

LTS Release Roadmap: The Tygron Platform is split up between three different server environments, each with their own dedicated purpose.

Long Term Support (LTS)

The Long Term Support server (LTS) at engine.tygron.com or power.tygron.com is updated roughly every two years and represents the most stable version of Tygron Platform. It is designed for long-term projects that require a reliable environment. Occasionally, unforeseen circumstances may necessitate additional updates or hotfixes outside of the Roadmap, typically due to hardware, driver, or operating system updates. However, the API will continue to remain stable.

Preview

The preview server (preview.tygron.com) is updated more frequently and includes the latest new features. However, since these features are still undergoing testing and optimization and may change based on user feedback, the preview server is not ideal for long-term projects.

The release cycle for this server generally consists of one year of full development, followed by a six-month feature freeze during which only bug fixes are addressed and documentation is updated.

What to expect

We are continuously working on improving the Tygron Platform, largely based on user feedback and the latest developments in the Tech Sector. For an up-to-date overview checkout the latest release notes here:

Migration

As shown in the table above, there is an overlap between LTS releases. During this time, users can familiarize themselves with the new features, participate in update training, test a few projects, and ultimately migrate to the new version.

Version numbers

The version numbers consist of 4 digits: For example: 2025.1.2.3

  • 2025: The main number represents the year of release.
  • 1: This represents the major feature updates, usually every two months.
  • 2: Represents a minor feature update.
  • 3: Represents an even smaller update or bug hotfix where the API explicitly does NOT change.
