_This is the developer documentation for Forgejo Next, covering technical
details for Forgejo contributors.
[Go to end-user documentation for service overview.](../../user/forgejo-next/)_

https://next.forgejo.org, also known as Forgejo Next, is Forgejo's
official testing and demonstration instance. The specific version of
Forgejo running on this instance varies depending on the status of the
latest release branch.

Typically, the instance will be running the daily build straight from the
`forgejo` branch, meaning it contains experimental code that will be
included in the next major version of Forgejo.

When a release branch is created and release candidates are posted,
Forgejo Next will be switched to the latest release candidate. Release
candidates are to be deployed until a stable release is
available. next.forgejo.org will then be upgraded back to the
`forgejo` branch.

For details on the hardward from which it is running, [checkout the section in the
infrastructe documentation](../infrastructure/#containers).
