Frequently asked question

How has the Product Life Cycle for version 3.x of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript changed?

Last Published: September 14, 2023

Answer

While Esri will continue to release very minor updates to the 3.x API to address a handful of bug fixes, it will now be released directly into the Extended Support lifecycle phase, as opposed to General Availability. See the Product Life Cycle for more information.

The ArcGIS API for JavaScript version 4.x is the focus of all new innovation and is the recommended JavaScript API for building compelling web apps with interactive user experiences and data-driven 2D and 3D visualizations.
