Supported Versions
The following releases are supported by the Wicket team.
| Version | Latest release | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Wicket 10.x | 10.11.0 | current, supported |
| Wicket 9.x | 9.24.0 | one final release, then end of life — upgrade to 10.x or 11.x |
| Wicket 8.x | 8.19.0 | one final release, then end of life — upgrade to 10.x or 11.x |
However, if your application is not on the current branch, you should consider upgrading at your earliest convenience.
Release Policy
With the release of Wicket 11.0.0, in the first week of October 2026, Wicket moves to a time-based release schedule: a new major release every three months, and every fourth major release — once a year — is a long term support (LTS) release. The table above describes the situation today; the schedule below takes effect when 11.0.0 is released.
Two release lines are maintained at any time:
- the current LTS release, which receives security fixes and applicable bug fixes until the next LTS release;
- the current quarterly release, which receives fixes until the next quarterly release supersedes it. Fixes normally ride along with that next release; a serious issue may warrant a patch release, for example 13.0.1.
The support window applies to the release line, not to individual features. Features are
developed on main and carry over into every following release, so a feature introduced
in Wicket 11 is also present in 12, 13 and in the next LTS, Wicket 14.
Wicket 10 is the current LTS and stays supported until Wicket 14 is released in the first
week of July 2027. Wicket 8.x and 9.x each receive one final release and are then end of
life, and with them Wicket’s support for the javax.servlet API.
| Version | Expected | Line |
|---|---|---|
| Wicket 11.0.0 | first week of October 2026 | quarterly |
| Wicket 12.0.0 | January 2027 | quarterly |
| Wicket 13.0.0 | April 2027 | quarterly |
| Wicket 14.0.0 | first week of July 2027 | LTS, supported until Wicket 18 |
