Versioning and upgrades
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
| *Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine*
|
|

This section of the guide covers how CorDapps are versioned and how to manage upgrades in a decentralised network. It should be read when
|
|
you're at a stage of your development that requires planning for post-launch iteration. You will learn:
|
|
|
|
* How the ledger expresses to what extent business logic can be changed and by who.
|
|
* How change is managed in a world where there are no privileged administrators who can force upgrades.
|
|
|
|
It's worth planning for versioning and upgrades from the start, especially if you plan for your CorDapp to itself provide APIs to other
|
|
apps. Apps extending the platform with industry-specific data models is a common case, and ensuring you can evolve your data model as
|
|
the world changes is a key part of any professionally built software.
