========== ===================
Red `provides support for wide variety of operating systems <install_guides/index>`.
Support for an entire operating system may only be dropped in a minor or major version bump.
Red will continue to, at the very least, support current latest stable version of
each operating system that was supported by previous micro versions.
In addition to that, we strive (but do not guarantee) to provide support for all versions that
are currently supported by operating system's developers per the table below.
We generally drop support for no longer supported OS versions as soon as they reached
their end-of-life date.
.. note::
We recommend to always use the latest OS version supported by Red.
