Some APIs are so proven and so relied upon that they are unlikely to ever change at all. Others are brand new and experimental, or known to be hazardous.</p> <p>The stability indexes are as follows:</p> <p></p><div class="api_stability api_stability_0">Stability: 0 - Deprecated. The feature may emit warnings. Backward compatibility is not guaranteed.</div><p></p> <!-- separator --> <p></p><div class="api_stability api_stability_1">Stability: 1 - Experimental. The feature is not subject to <a href="https://semver.org/">semantic versioning</a> rules. Non-backward compatible changes or removal may occur in any future release. Use of the feature is not recommended in production environments.<p>Experimental features are subdivided into stages:</p><ul> <li>1.0 - Early development. Experimental features at this stage are unfinished and subject to substantial change.</li> <li>1.1 - Active development. Experimental features at this stage are nearing minimum viability.</li> <li>1.2 - Release candidate. Experimental features at this stage are hopefully ready to become stable. No further breaking changes are anticipated but may still occur in response to user feedback. We encourage user testing and feedback so that we can know that this feature is ready to be marked as stable.</li> </ul></div><p></p> <!-- separator --> <p></p><div class="api_stability api_stability_2">Stability: 2 - Stable. Compatibility with the npm ecosystem is a high priority.</div><p></p> <!-- separator --> <p></p><div class="api_stability api_stability_3">Stability: 3 - Legacy. Although this feature is unlikely to be removed and is still covered by semantic versioning guarantees, it is no longer actively maintained, and other alternatives are available.</div><p></p> <p>Features are marked as legacy rather than being deprecated if their use does no harm, and they are widely relied upon within the npm ecosystem. Bugs found in legacy features are unlikely to be fixed.</p> <p>Use caution when making use of Experimental features, particularly when authoring libraries. Users may not be aware that experimental features are being used. Bugs or behavior changes may surprise users when Experimental API modifications occur. To avoid surprises, use of an Experimental feature may need a command-line flag. Experimental features may also emit a <a href="process.html#event-warning">warning</a>.</p> </section><section><h3>Stability overview<span><a class="mark" href="#stability-overview" id="stability-overview">#</a></span><a aria-hidden="true" class="legacy" id="documentation_stability_overview"></a></h3> <!-- STABILITY_OVERVIEW_SLOT_BEGIN --><table><thead><tr><th>API</th><th>Stability</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="assert.html">Assert</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="async_hooks.html">Async hooks</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_1">(1) Experimental</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="async_context.html">Asynchronous context tracking</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="buffer.html">Buffer</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="child_process.html">Child process</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="cluster.html">Cluster</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="console.html">Console</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="crypto.html">Crypto</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="diagnostics_channel.html">Diagnostics Channel</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="dns.html">DNS</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="domain.html">Domain</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_0">(0) Deprecated</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="fs.html">File system</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="http.html">HTTP</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="http2.html">HTTP/2</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="https.html">HTTPS</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="inspector.html">Inspector</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_2">(2) Stable</td></tr><tr><td class="module_stability"><a href="module.html">Modules: <code>node:module</code> API</a></td><td class="api_stability api_stability_1">(1) .2 -
