This page tracks notable changes that impact the Wikimedia Design System, Codex, and Foundational Technology (e.g., Vue.js).
Release cadence
Codex
A new version of Codex is released every other Tuesday. On the day the new release is created, we also submit a patch to MediaWiki core to use that new release. Since we do this on Tuesdays, the update to core will be deployed the following week (the next time the deployment train runs). You can view all Codex tags on Gerrit or a tag timeline on GitHub.
