Down in the footer you should see something of the format "vX.X.X", which denotes the current version of this website. This page explains how that version number is derived.

Versioning here borrows from the concepts of Semantic Versioning, tweaked to better fit how this website is developed.

Major.Minor.Patch

The format

Major

Bumped when

Any existing structure changes — the structure of the code, the files, or anything else with a defined structure. Basically, this covers re-writes of the website.

Minor

Bumped when

New content is added — text, images, even whole pages. So long as the existing structure is adhered to.

Patch

Bumped when

Existing content is modified. This covers things like:

  • Bug fixes
  • Styling tweaks — same layout, small modifications
  • Text editing
  • Image updates
  • Anything already in the markup that's been changed
