## AI overview

React introduces an officially supported Canary release channel that allows the community and frameworks to adopt individual React features before stable releases. The channel is intended for features considered close to final and provides a supported path for incremental rollout outside Meta.

## Source excerpt

We'd like to offer the React community an option to adopt individual new features as soon as their design is close to final, before they're released in a stable version--similar to how Meta has long used bleeding-edge versions of React internally. We are introducing a new officially supported [Canary release channel](/community/versioning-policy#canary-channel). It lets curated setups like frameworks decouple adoption of individual React features from the React release schedule.
