## API lifecycle stages

| Stage | Description | Lifetime |
|---------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Preview | API in the design phase, can change significantly, or be removed completely. Not for production use. | Until design is complete, or implementation cancelled |
| Beta | Features that is still being tested and may change. More stable than Preview, but still subject to change. | At most, two 1.x releases before it is either considered stable or returned to preview |
| Generally Available (GA)| Ready for production use, with minimal risk of breaking changes. | Supported until at least 2.0
| Superseded | This API is still available, but is no longer the best practice. A better alternative is available. | Supported until at least 2.0
| Deprecated | API is still available but will be removed in the future; avoid new usage. | Will be removed in a minor release, the DeprecationWarning will indicate the next release that will remove the API.
