Changes in v17.0.0
25 breaking changes
Make sure to read the version specific upgrades notes for guidance.
Umbraco 17 is the new Long-Term Support (LTS) release, marking a stable foundation for many years of updates.
Extensions are now first-class citizens: older extension methods are phased out with clear, supported alternatives.
New features include support for .NET 10, load-balanced backoffice, and consistent UTC date handling with time zone support.
Direct LTS-to-LTS upgrade is supported, e.g., from Umbraco 13 straight to 17 (with migrations applied automatically).
