# What Does Each cPanel Build Type Mean?

cPanel maintains three production builds and one beta experimental build. Below is a breakdown of the **EDGE**, **CURRENT**, **STABLE**, **RELEASE**, and **STABLE** builds.


**EDGE** -- Edge is the bleeding edge tree. While it has the newest features; It has undergone the least amount of testing (if any). You generally shouldn't run this build unless you need a bug fix or feature in it. Once an equivalent CURRENT or RELEASE build has been released, you should switch away from this.

**CURRENT** -- Current builds are more mature than the EDGE builds since they have been tested in a production environment.

**RELEASE** -- Release builds are the preferred builds to run. They are generally current enough to have the latest bugfixes and new features, but without the worry of new bugs being introduced.

**STABLE** -- Stable builds are for the conservative people who do not wish to run the latest release.
