Updating

Updating a NativeScript app is usually a quick process if done regularly. The following guides aim to document the general update steps, highlighting breaking changes (if any) when updating between specific versions.

Update guides ​

• Updating to latest

Updating to a tagged version ​

To try upcoming features that have not been release yet, you can install the next tag of the CLI (built from the latest commit in the NativeScript CLI repository) via:

npm install -g nativescript@next

You can also pass a tag to the ns update command.

For example, to try all the latest features that have not made it into a stable release yet, you can run:

ns update next
