# Versioning
We use [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/) in this project. Given a version number `MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH` you can expect the following kinds of changes:
| Version number | Kinds of changes |
| :---- | :---- |
| _Major_ | Removed icons; Renamed icons; Breaking API changes |
| _Minor_ | New icons; API changes |
| _Patch_ | Updated SVGs; Updated metadata |
