rolling release
A rolling release is a software update model where a product, like an operating system, receives continuous updates and improvements rather than waiting for large, staged releases. This means users get the latest features, security patches, and fixes as soon as they are available, without needing to reinstall or upgrade to a new version. It provides a constantly evolving experience, reducing the need for periodic major upgrades, and ensuring the system stays current with ongoing development. This approach is common in many open-source projects and modern software distributions aiming for up-to-date performance.
