Google accelerates Chrome release cycle
Google is moving its Chrome browser to a two-week release cycle, instead of the current four, or the six-week cycle that existed for the decade before that. The change starts in September.
“Building on our history of adapting our release process to match the demands of a modern web, Chrome is moving to a two-week release cycle,” the company said in a blog post.
The goal is to give users and developers faster access to performance improvements, fixes, and new capabilities. The smaller scope of the releases should also simplify debugging. The change applies to desktop, Android, and iOS, and begins with the stable release of Chrome 153 on September 8th. Beta releases will also move up to a two-week cycle.
There are no changes to the Dev and Canary channels, and Extended Stable for enterprise admins and Chromium embedders will continue to adhere to an eight-week cycle.
