backbone.jsHow do I find out the release date of a specific version of Backbone.js?
The best way to find out the release date of a specific version of Backbone.js is to check the GitHub repository.
You can look at the Releases page to find out the exact date of a release. For example, the release date of version 1.3.3 can be found in the release notes:
Backbone 1.3.3
Release Date: 2016-02-09
Alternatively, you can also use the GitHub API to programmatically query the release date. For example, the following code snippet uses curl
to query the API:
curl -H "Accept: application/vnd.github.v3+json" "https://api.github.com/repos/jashkenas/backbone/releases/tags/1.3.3"
The output of the command will contain the release date:
